Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Minister, I want to revisit production capacity as it relates to the 155‑millimetre projectiles. You were asked about it a few times, about a year ago. On December 7, 2023, you promised to increase production capacity by four times, from 5,000 to 20,000 per month. A few months ago, you said you were waiting for the results of a manufacturer study on how to increase production.
Shortly after, you were asked about it again. You said that the manufacturers were perhaps taking advantage of the situation to raise the price tag, and you wanted to make sure Canadians were getting the most bang for their buck. You never gave us a number, however.
It is now a year later, and I'd like to hear your answer. What is Canada's monthly production capacity currently?
