Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll be quick.
I want to thank our witnesses.
We were looking at the U.S. ballistic missile defence program. Could General Pelletier explain the mechanisms of how the hand-off happens between NORAD and the American BMD program if they were going to intercept a warhead coming towards North America and how that hand-off comes back again, just so people understand the efficacy of the program and the overall involvement that Canada has directly and indirectly in the decision-making process?
