I would actually defer to Mr. Greenley on this question, because I think it's often with the larger player that there's a larger issue.
When it comes to companies that are start-ups, scale-ups, SMEs and SMBs, I'll give you an example of some regulatory red tape, Mr. Guglielmin.
The average SME has told us that there is an 18-month wait to get a security clearance to be able to bid on a defence contract in Canada. When you double-click on that and you ask them why they are able to bid on security contracts in the United Kingdom or in Australia or in any of the NATO-allied countries, they will tell you that there's the same rigorousness of vetting, but it just happens much more quickly.
SMEs, start-ups and scale-ups will simply decide to opt out of bidding in Canada because of a simple bureaucratic backlog of this nature.
