Yesterday at the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates meeting, they learned that we still don't know when the CF‑18s will be replaced. Questions were asked about how many hours of maintenance per hour of flight time the new aircraft would require, but they were unable to get an answer.
With that in mind, are you able to give us an update on the CF‑18 replacement process?
Furthermore, does the fact that we don't have adequate equipment to provide threaten NORAD operations? We are a NORAD partner, so doesn't that put us in an awkward situation?
