There was the ice storm in Quebec. As an outside observer, do you have any suggestions for improving our equipment? A lot of equipment came back from Afghanistan, and it was not necessarily adapted. You said earlier that an agreement between the U.S. government and the governors had improved the response time and collaboration.
My other question has to do with the network. Has the possibility of separating the network been investigated? The Internet was originally created by the army. Has the possibility of completely physically separating the Internet network been investigated in order to increase its effectiveness and reduce threats?
I have a third question. Have civilian agencies been considered in the strategic planning, as is done in other countries? Those agencies also have worthwhile resources. What is their role in military planning?
