Thank you, Mr. Chair.
General, Colonel, it's good to see you again. I know the colonel and I worked together before on the Atlantic Council of Canada. Back when he was the brigade commander, I was but a young lieutenant.
Sir, taking off that line of questioning on the F-35, you had said the F-35 is superior to the F-22 in some senses of capability. What would you comment on why an F-35, besides just the stealth capability, is important for a readiness for Canada and the survivability of our pilots in particular?
