I'm not too sure how the NSE was invoked for C-17s, but certainly some of the work on the C-17s will be done in the global Boeing supply centres. We see a role for Canadian industry in supporting aircraft in Canada. We're also trying to get Boeing to bring Canadian companies into their global supply centres—companies in Canada that potentially supply landing gear parts. We can use IRBs to get Canadian sources of supplies in those global supply centres.
On the C-17s, there will be some maintenance done outside of Canada. On the tactical and helicopter fleets, it's our strong position that all ISS has to be done in Canada. We're procuring a large number of aircraft, and the capabilities we have in our industry are first class. They're demanded by other countries around the world. That's why we've asked the government to clearly state that 100% of the ISS, excepting the spare parts, will be done by Canadian industry and Canadian workers.
We also don't want the government to use a threshold of 75% of the value; we want them to declare in a clear form that it includes complete fleet management of the aircraft, repair and overhaul, and major upgrades and modification. So we certainly see a need to strengthen the approach of ISS related to helicopters and the tactical aircraft portions of that procurement.
