Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I have a question for Professor Lagassé about Canada's role within NATO.
Last time the NATO unit was needed, about half the countries, or 13 out of 28, refused to intervene. That was the case in the Libyan intervention. Out of those 13 countries, two of the largest ones have a population of 80 million. I am talking about Germany and Turkey.
Could you tell me what you think about NATO's viability and about how Canada should behave in future interventions?
