Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I'd also like to thank the two witnesses for joining us. Congratulations on your remarks, Mr. Rowe. I agree with many of the points that you have raised.
Earlier,my colleague talked about Canada's aerospace industry joining forces to demand that the government change its acquisitions processes. You didn't seem to be especially keen on the idea of the regions sharing a percentage of the spinoffs.
How can the industry present a united front if it does not take into account the geographic distribution of these aerospace industries or the Canadian reality as it pertain to these industries in each of Canada's regions?
