Thank you very much, Chair.
I would just advise my colleague not to worry. There's lots of competition for ego in this room, and I speak of myself to start with.
General, thank you very much for your presentation. Although I've been on Parliament Hill for a number of years now, I'm the newbie on this committee, so when you say things like, “You are likely already aware of...”, you're speaking to the majority of the committee but not to me. So it's very much one on one for me.
I'm very much interested in the operational support hub initiative that you mentioned in the latter part of your presentation. Particularly, you noted that if it's part of the strategic line of communication, it's not a base. Could you help me with a little more understanding on the strategic line of communication and exactly what that is? And again, provide a little further embellishment of the hub and how that differs from a base, since you made the point that we need to know that it's not one.
