Yes. I think these aren't too surprising in terms of the sectors you were going to talk about. Aerospace, given the size of the Montreal and Winnipeg hubs—and in Toronto as well—I think is an area. Also, for some of our maritime areas—Halifax certainly, with the NATO DIANA— there is a reason it's such a core area. I'm from British Columbia, and the west coast has many sorts of firms that work really well in these areas. I think that to some degree we don't want to reinvent the wheel in a lot of these areas. We want to really build on the existing capabilities.
I think what's really interesting now with military capabilities is that we are seeing a transformational period in capabilities. There are a lot of good on-ramps because of AI and a sort of autonomy, and a sort of new...what we call “attritable systems”. We don't have to have this huge overhead of having a manned capability that requires a lot of testing and all of that to ensure we can have a system that we put into service. If it's lost, we replace it with a new iteration. You see this in Ukraine. You see this in the current conflict in the Middle East.
I think those are the areas that we should focus on, but I would argue that it's still going to take Canada time to build up the engine and get the traction to get it moving forward. Given some of the challenges we have right now with our lack of military capability and the delayed modernization that we've had for 20-some years, we really probably realistically have to look at a two-stage approach. Maybe we can even partner with some allies or buy foreign systems, but also while funding some of these underlying areas and giving them opportunities, certainly, with our capabilities, but also funding that. There's a bit of a mismatch with where their maturity is versus our current need for capabilities as well.
