My next question has to do with the search and rescue aircraft. This has been going on a very long time. One of the witnesses who came and testified at committee said it's been 27 years. I'm wondering why it's taking so long.
The other question I had concerns search and rescue. I come from British Columbia, where this is a big issue, but it is also a big issue in other parts of Canada as well. There seems to be some appetite, I would say, for using transport planes, the Hercules, for search and rescue, and I'm wondering why.
