Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for being here. I have the great honour of representing North Island–Powell River, so I am a very close neighbour and very happy to have a fellow B.C. resident here with us today.
Two days ago we had testimony by Davie Shipyard in which they clearly indicated their discontent with the national shipbuilding strategy. Canadian Marine Industries and Shipbuilding Association has also expressed some concern.
I have a couple of questions around that. As the main recipient of this strategy, do you both believe that Canada must look at more than one procurement or possibly look at procurement with a wider angle? If so, what do you think that would look like?
