Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to both of our witnesses. Thank you for being here to answer some of our questions.
There's a huge amount of spending and dollars that would come if we were to meet our 2% target much sooner. I agree that we need to work on that, and we need to get to a level of readiness, considering the situation in the world and the results of the elections the other day.
Of course, in order to be able to do this, the population does, to some extent, need to support this spending. I'm wondering what messages you think our government should start sharing to the general public. I don't think everybody follows these meetings, and this is pretty much the only public space where these conversations are had and people can actually get this information.
What messages should we be sharing to the population to get them on board with this kind of change and shift?
You can both respond.
