Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I welcome General Leslie. This man saved my region during the 1998 ice storm. Each time I have the opportunity, I am proud to say it and I thank him for it.
Just now, you mentioned the civilian contribution. More and more people are wondering about privatizing the military. By “privatizing”, I mean that a certain number of tasks would be given to private sector. A short while ago, we had a major debate on the supply chain. I do not think that you are talking about the supply chain. I often meet companies like ATCO Frontec that do an enormous amount of work on the theatre of operations. I do not know how far you want to go with this. Some people are beginning to say that even some security patrols would be given to private sector to ensure that we can free up the largest possible number of soldiers. You would not have the human resources required to deliver all the services you offer over there. Could you give me an idea of what is meant by privatization? Do you want to go further than ATCO Frontec that is involved in construction and pitching camps, etc.? Can this go as far as security patrols or even the supply chain?
