Members, we will start with the second round of witnesses.
With us today is Dan Ross, assistant deputy minister for materiel. We also have Lieutenant-General Deschamps, Chief of the Air Staff. We have Michael Slack, F-35 project manager, director of continental materiel cooperation. We have Colonel Burt, director, new generation fighter capability, Chief of the Air Staff; Tom Ring, assistant deputy minister; and Johanne Provencher, director general, defence and major projects directorate.
I understand that only three people are presenting, and we'll start with Lieutenant-General Deschamps.
I welcome you, General. You know the drill. We're going to have five minutes for your presentation. We will then go to a seven-minute first round, followed by five-minute rounds. This is an opportunity for members to ask as many questions as they can.
General, I turn the floor over to you.
