You were poorly briefed then. Why was it said that the C-17 contract was ITAR-friendly, particularly with respect to dual citizenship? You know full well that ITAR applies to this contract, not only to employees that may come from other companies—and that's why I raised the matter of Bell Helicopter, even though I don't need you to answer regarding that—but also to defence employees. So for someone with dual citizenship, being Venezuelan or Chinese, the American government's security rules will apply: this person will not even be able to get near the plane.
I am not talking to you about the region, but about the way that you have awarded this contract. Why didn't you negotiate the application of ITAR before signing this contract? Why didn't you take a firmer stance in order to protect our Canadian citizens?
