Thank you very much, Chair.
My questions are going to be directed to General Whitecross.
Thank you again for your service to our country—it's greatly appreciated—and for your career, which is exemplary, to say the least.
Being retired now, you can speak in hypotheticals, because you don't necessarily represent the Canadian Armed Forces anymore.
We are anywhere between 7,500 and 10,000 personnel short, depending on who you read and who you talk to. It could be a recruiting problem, a retention problem or both. You are now in charge of...whether it be the Canadian Armed Forces or recruiting and retention. What would you do if you had that role to fix both the recruiting side and the retention side?
You have the full four minutes and 12 seconds left to respond.
