Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and, through you, I will adhere to our study of North America as opposed to Nigeria. We all care deeply about the girls who have been kidnapped and we wish our civilian forces who are cooperating with those agencies all the best in finding them.
It was an extreme pleasure to have Admiral Truelove, on the Pacific coast, host our NATO parliamentary associations when they came from Europe to study Pacific security in North America. He gave a very kinetic overview of what was going on, took us on brand new patrol ships, patrol boats that were new, built on time, and on budget. As well, we learned about energy security on that. But if you're speaking to him, please let him know how much we really appreciated what he did, and how it continues to be of interest, and our Arctic sovereignty is also of concern to our NATO partners.
In terms of the study that we're doing right now, reference was made to Operation Nanook. I'm wondering if you can tell us any plans for this coming summer, in terms of what may occur.
