It was ecstatic, especially the U.S., the military leadership. SACEUR himself came up to our ambassador. NATO partner nations are very happy that Canada is stepping up, because our voice matters at the table. When we speak, we speak with credibility. We bring approaches where we don't have certain difficulties that other nations have had. We bring a very neutral voice, but at the same time we send a very strong voice.
I can't stress enough right now how important it is to send a very strong message to Russia, and NATO provides that message.
