I want to welcome you to the committee. You've already answered a lot of questions. That's twice today. We had you at the environment committee earlier in the day, along with Ambassador Mamedov. So welcome again.
At the environment committee the Auditor General was welcomed as a Canadian folk hero. We certainly want to recognize the good work of the Office of the Auditor General.
A quick observation, though, goes back to a question by Monsieur Bachand. One of the members opposite was asking about $66 million being spent outside of the military for health care services versus $500 million, roughly, inside. It seems to me that the Canadian average for publicly paid care is about two-thirds, and one-third of health care dollars are roughly spent on private care in the national system. So maybe if that's roughly 12% or 14%, perhaps we're doing better in the military than in the general health care services all together.
I do note that in some of your comments there was some good news--an 85% overall satisfaction rate--which probably compares favourably and maybe better than outside, and wait times are shorter in the military. So there is some good news that came in your report as well.
