Thank you.
You talked about the side door, Mr. Williams. The next-generation fighter capability program has been very open and transparent. It's been part of the Canada First defence strategy since 2008. The program obviously has been around since 1997. The MOU has been on the website since 2007. It's out there.
The thing that concerns me is, frankly, a Sea King story: 17 years, $600 million a year, and we still don't have an airplane. The cost and the implications of that situation were bad. But I would suggest to you that the cost to our industry, the cost to our reputation, the cost of not having a piece of equipment that we will fly until 2050 and beyond, the implications of going back on this—withdrawing from the MOU—would be catastrophic to Canadian industry and to our capacity to fulfill our military obligations for the next 30 to 40 years.
