Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First of all, thank you all for being here this morning. I am a guest on this committee today, so I'm a bit out of my element. I'm here representing MP Alleslev, and I wanted to mention that she was very pleased to hear that you would be here today, and she apologizes that she's not. I'll do my best to represent her well today.
For my benefit, as somebody's who's not typically on this committee, I'm wondering if you can elaborate on the differences between the NSPA and the NCIA procurement agencies within NATO, and give some ideas as to why Canada is less successful with the NCIA.
