Thank you.
Welcome, Mr. Page. It's good to have you with us.
We have had multiple Canadian aerospace industry representatives come before this committee and express in no uncertain terms that the JSF program would be good for business. Some people seem to be stuck on this model, and say that because it's not the old IRB there must be something wrong with it.
Progress evolves and industry evolves. Certainly the world evolves. What is your opinion on the Canadian aerospace industry's ability to adapt to the real-world changes that have come along in the past several years with respect to industrial participation?
I also noticed in your presentation that you had seven points. It seems to me that the program we're looking at fits well into those seven points. Perhaps you could comment on one or two of those observations.
