I want to touch upon a couple of things you mentioned with regard to the military. I think that's probably something that the whole panel could speak to a bit.
We seem to miss the opportunity sometimes. You used the words “guinea pig”. I can use that to some degree. My son is in the military and has served overseas. He mentions a couple of things all the time—that we're lacking in certain things that we could potentially use if someone would just allow us to use them, and they would love to be that person.
I wonder if anyone on the panel can speak to that, that we're missing the boat potentially in using our military—who so choose, if they're in battle or wherever they are around the world—to test products in conditions that may not be used by most Canadians.
