Thank you.
I will continue along the same lines as Ms. Lambropoulos.
You mentioned the shortage of recruits that the Canadian Armed Forces are currently facing. There have been recent cuts in operations deemed unnecessary, and we do not know if other cuts will be made in the future. You also spoke of the pressure put on the forces related to the high demand for their services in southern Canada.
In the event of a lack of effective capacity on the ground, how would the Arctic rank in terms of priorities? Would resources be taken away from the Arctic and be reassigned further south, or vice versa? How do you think the resources would be used?
