I have a question for Vice-admiral McFadden. Has there been a recent increase in the number of Canadian ship patrols and land-based patrols? Has there been a recent increase in military air traffic? I would like to know.
And I am coming back to the lead question. In the strategy of showing a stronger military presence, is it the Department of National Defence or Canada Command that decides to increase patrols? Or is there a discussion between the departments, who then decide National Defence will do this, Foreign Affairs will do that, and Environment Canada will do its job? Do you have carte blanche to increase the number of patrols, Mr. McFadden?
