I think your point about small and medium-sized industries in Canada is a really good one. It's been really challenging for them historically. Even today, we are potentially on a defence.... The DSRB, or the defence, security and resilience bank, announcement may come soon. One of the big issues is obtaining capital for increasing their ability to meet some of these demands.
We have to realize that the defence environment is highly regulated. There are security concerns. In some of these areas, even in dual use, there are very few firms that can actually work within that space, and getting the talent necessary is going to require years of development through education, funding and whatnot.
When we think about these areas, it's nice to see that companies are excited to go forward with this. My previous comments about sustainability of funding notwithstanding, trying to reduce some of these regulatory barriers and create the ability for them to participate in the defence marketplace, for lack of a better word, is really important.
As a comparative example, if you look at the United States over the past 10 years and how they have tried to transform the Department of Defense's ability to contract firms by looking at non-traditional suppliers, that is now seen as a real strength for their ability to procure new and novel systems that are becoming more and more important for places like Ukraine.
In order to sustain what you're asking for, that's an area that needs a hard look.
