If I rightly understand the question you're asking, it gets into almost a case-by-case basis. If they are acquired, what are the terms of the acquisition? What can they have access to? As an example, a Canadian company, MDA, now Maxar Technologies, acquired U.S. companies, but there are firewalls and restrictions on what they can access. Again, it would be on a case-by-case basis. Once the acquisition occurs, are there firewalls, are there separations, are there things that preclude it?
It could come down to security requirements, as happens in Canada. We have a security requirements checklist that we apply to all of our procurements that determines what level it needs to be. Fundamentally, this could be an acquisition that turns into an issue around their ability to bid on classified projects and things of that nature. It could preclude them in some cases, even in the national context.
It's really on a case-by-case basis. I don't have enough expertise in the legalities of mergers and acquisitions to understand the kinds of separations that occur in those sorts of things. Generally, that would be part of the discussion in limiting what it can go to.
Again, it's very often less about a discrete rule set and more about what the 29 nations at the table determine will be done: what are they prepared to do, what is the security aspect of it?
