That's a very important point. Mr. Kalil covered that in his presentation, but let's be clear. Companies have to invest up front to gain these contracts, and Canadian companies will be leery of investing up front if there seems to be some uncertainty as to where the program is going. Moreover—Mr. Kalil was quite eloquent on this—if a Lockheed Martin sees some uncertainty also, they will certainly perhaps think twice before dealing with some of our companies. So we feel it is extremely important that the government has made a decision and that the decision be implemented.
