All right.
I'd like to talk about the aerospace sector. In my riding of Mirabel, an important company, L3Harris, provides maintenance services for military aircraft.
Obviously, I know that what I'm going to ask you falls under the Department of National Defence, but I know that the Department of Industry has positions on certain issues internally. For instance, an issue came up in the past relating to titanium, which fell under Global Affairs Canada.
L3Harris has an opportunity to grow significantly and become an even larger player in the aircraft maintenance sector in North America and the aerospace cluster. For that to happen, though, the Government of Canada has to submit an application, through the Department of National Defence, so that Canada can get a regional maintenance centre. It would maintain Canada's F‑35s, which are coming, and those of the U.S.
Has the department followed up on that, and does it have a position on the matter?
Does the government intend to submit the application so we don't miss out on the opportunity? We're being told that time is running out.
