Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I would like to welcome you to the Committee, particularly you, General Benjamin. We are always proud to see that a guy from Saint-Jean has managed to reach the highest levels of the military command structure. Mr. Benjamin is one of my constituents. I hope he won his own elections in the last 13 years.
I just have a couple of questions for you. It is my impression that you are a services group. I see this as representing a client-salesman relationship, in that you are serving the people over there.
Who do you receive your orders from? For example, who decides when kleenex, weapons or ammunition are required? Is it Gen Fraser who calls you? Is it Gen Gauthier? Does Fraser call Gauthier, who then calls you to tell you they need this or that? How does the decision-making process work?
