Thank you, Mr. Shipley.
I think the issue, in particular, though, is that China is an adversarial nation. If we compare it with European auto markets, that is, with European cars in Canada, and also American ones, those countries are not our adversaries in the same way as China is, which is using its soft power by exporting Chinese EVs to foreign markets. With a little foothold, they blow open the door in those markets and those markets are then flooded with those EVs in a very short order.
I'm concerned that, let's say in 10 years, we'll have millions of Chinese EVs. You've outlined this, that they have the power to shut down or remotely lock these vehicles, let alone pull all of the data back to the headquarter facility—perhaps in China, for this example I'm using. You're aware, I'm sure, that in Norway, they proved that Chinese EV buses driven far underground in Norwegian mines could be remotely shut off by the Chinese company that made the buses.
Again, we're talking about worst-case scenarios, but the country has to be smart when we're talking about bringing in, basically, rolling computers that Canadians live their lives in, and which Chinese automakers will be flooding the streets with in the next number of years and decades.
Could you comment on that?
