Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses for being here.
My first question is for Mr. Davies.
In your brief and your comments, you spoke about your role and that of Public Safety Canada, which is to work with more than a dozen departments and agencies to identify proliferation-related threats.
I realize that it's not always easy to give details. But for the benefit of those watching and for us, here around the table, would you mind giving us a brief explanation of what you mean by identifying proliferation-related threats? I know what the words mean, but what does the statement actually mean for Canada specifically or for the world? Why do we need these kinds of treaties or agreements with our allies?
