We understand that Industry Canada has established a sustainment working group and that a number of companies have been invited to participate in it. We're equally conscious that the Department of National Defence is working up its numbers and its plan. Our access to that data is, obviously, and for legitimate reasons, restricted. So from a relative outsider's position, our encouragement to the government is simply to ensure that as it develops its sustainment plan, it does so with one eye on meeting the mission requirement of the Canadian Forces and one eye on the economic opportunities available to Canadian workers.
