Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Leblond, I would like to talk first about acquisitions of foreign Quebec or Canadian entities, but also about the importance of contracts secured by foreign businesses in response to public tenders, particularly in strategic sectors, that may have enormous impacts in terms of national security. I am thinking here of the example of the China Railroad Rolling Stock Corporation. That Chinese business, which was banned in the United States, has been selected as a possible candidate for replacing Toronto's subway cars.
If we want to protect our national security, should the Investment Canada Act not provide measures that would also protect public tenders in strategic sectors?
