Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank both of our witnesses. I've found the testimony today very compelling and interesting.
We are talking about the defence of North America here and we've had some witnesses who've talked about the relationship between Canada and the United States and both of you, as professors, have specialized in Canada-America relations. I want to get a sense from you of how you see our relationship at this point in time, and how some of the policy issues that are happening in the U.S. are impacting upon decisions made on the defence of North America.
