I'll quickly tackle the home and abroad piece. Let me take Russia as a practical example, because it's doing things that are most noticed by Canadians, although one could also look at what China is doing and make the same kind of case.
Russia fired cruise missiles from the Caspian Sea across Iran and across Iraq into Syria from frigates; and it also fired cruise missiles from the Mediterranean into Syria from submarines. Those capabilities are exactly the kinds of things that were spoken about when people were commenting on submarine- and ship-launched capabilities back in the spring in the context of the air defence of North America.
The time to deter Russia is now, not at some later date, although we want the capabilities to be able to deal with Russian platforms when they do show up off our coast. That is why we've had a ship with NATO forces doing reassurance or deterrence and why we also contributed to a major NATO exercise called Trident Juncture a year ago. I think you would know that the submarine that was on that exercise was turned after the exercise to operational employment. The same thing happened again this year when a submarine was in European waters for exercises in the Baltic. It got turned to operational purposes.
So it all adds up to a series of efforts to show military capability from an alliance nation, driven by the fact that it's the Government of Canada that deploys those forces. Once they turn operational, it's the Government of Canada that makes those decisions, and those are being made in European waters and supporting European allies. So you have both military capability and political will being deployed to European waters, rather than waiting for those platforms to show up off our coasts and deal with them here.
