Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
To the witnesses, thank you for your responses thus far.
I was looking at the CDA articles last night. One is entitled “Could Canada Pull Out From Afghanistan? A "What If' Scenario”. There's an estimate of the principal results of a Canadian decision to pull out, and I'd like a commentary on the one scenario. It states that “...in showing such weakness in the face of fanatic terrorism, Canada will have made itself a lucrative target for future attacks. Will we talk some day about New York, London, Madrid, Bali and Vancouver?”
I'd like you to expand on that particular statement.
