I'd like to thank you for expressing those sentiments and putting them on the record. I think they're echoed widely by allied forces and the international community.
My second question relates to counterterrorism operations in Iraq, as we've been engaged in a train and assist role. It's a question of regional dimensions of terrorist entities, like ISIS. In other words, if one conducts operations in country X, there's a high risk of terrorist elements being displaced into other regions. We've heard it with respect to Libya and then the G5 Sahel.
From a Canadian military perspective, can you give us your views on what that implies, in terms of strategic planning for operations in the Middle East?
