Thank you.
Yes, and again, I agree with my Manitoba colleague in terms of the necessity to bring the military in as a last resort, but really to focus on a civilian response capability. I'm not saying the Red Cross necessarily in all aspects. There are aspects we play in there, but again we're using the military as a last tool.
The last comment is very important as well. Again, we don't understand our risks. We don't prepare our response capability according to those risks and we don't exercise, so we don't maintain capacity from one event to another and we're unprepared. This is all part of a larger culture, and I think it's an important part of civil society to keep the military last.
If I may have a few minutes, I'd invite my colleague, Amy Avis, who has looked at different civil response systems in three countries, to say a few words.
