Thank you for the question.
We take cybersecurity risks absolutely seriously. I want to thank the member for raising an absolutely critical question. As the member knows, in our strategy, first and foremost we doubled the budget of the Canadian AI safety institute. We work closely with Canada's cyber-safety institute on threats that are on the horizon: threats from AI models and cybersecurity threats.
Shared Services Canada, for our critical infrastructure, has multiple layers of cybersecurity defences—cyber-walls, network defences, anti-denial of service measures, antivirus measures and virtual private networking—but one of the key protections is investing in Canadian sovereign AI and Canadian infrastructure.
