Thank you very much, sir, and thank you very much to all the members of the committee. Merci bien.
As I said the first time I came here, our opportunity to talk to you about what we do in as transparent a manner as possible is critically important to our country, so that you as parliamentarians can understand and ask the difficult questions that need to be asked so that we are successful together as a nation. Canada is making a critically important contribution in Afghanistan as a member of the international community. I have enjoyed the opportunity to work with you and I thank you very much.
