The Structured Financing Facility which was renewed in 2007 is intended to facilitate the transition. The other component, as the minister was mentioning, would be the purchases by the coast guard and the Department of Defence. The government hopes that these acquisitions will maintain continuity in employment, once the process to build these ships or to proceed with refits over the coming years has been launched.
We hope that the four components, that is to say the depreciation program, the purchase in Canada program, that is to say Buy Canada, the Structured Financing Facility as well as acquisitions will allow us to provide sustained support for the shipbuilding sector.
