There's a change in practice happening in Canada. For many years, many in industry were dealing with partners in the United States, but we have also learned to protect our technology with patents. I'm sure my friend Gilles and I have many patents that will protect us worldwide for the next 21 years. They are on many new products used in the joint strike fighter. It is also very important to know that Canada is starting to remain competitive--to protect its IP to produce new products.
