Merci beaucoup, monsieur le président.
Mr. Burbage, thank you for being here. I'll save you the earpiece: my mother was an anglophone and my father was a francophone, so I'll ask the questions in English for you.
Thank you for your answers. They've been very thorough, frankly, and rather detailed and I appreciate that very much.
My colleague had a number of questions, and I think other colleagues have asked questions that perhaps we were thinking of asking as well. Let me try a few other areas of concern that we had.
I am by no means an expert in different fighter aircraft or the sustainment mechanisms, but one of the things we've heard is that the F-35 that Canada is looking at buying doesn't have a refuelling system that is compatible with Canada's current air-to-air refuelling tankers. So either Canada would have to buy new air-to-air refuelling tankers, presumably...or can modifications be made to the F-35 we're looking at purchasing that would in fact limit or reduce the cost of that kind of compatibility issue?
