Mr. Chairman, perhaps I might answer that in a slightly different way, because the lead time required, from R and D through to commercialization, and then the ability to compete on programs, is not an overnight phenomenon. My answer to you would be that through the opportunities Canadian industry is able to win on F-35, they will be developing expertise and access, as supply chain members, to other programs and to commercial opportunities, perhaps, that they may be able to spin off from the innovation and/or success they've had through their support of the F-35 program.
