I have no idea. I have no idea whatever. I do not know anything about defence.
I do not know how we could possibly ask NATO to come in for this sort of thing. First of all, they're territorial waters. There's absolutely no question as to our sovereignty, subject only to the right of innocent passage. Insofar as the continental shelf is concerned, NATO would be in the way.
This has nothing to do with defence. I cannot answer your question. My answer is simply put: nothing.
Now, Mr. Chairman, if I could seize this opportunity, you talked about the Northwest Passage and you talked about control, etc.
