Absolutely, I do.
As the deputy commissioners made clear, the Coast Guard has capabilities with regard to surveillance and maritime awareness and on things like infrastructure, for example. We've seen efforts by the Russian shadow fleet to destroy subsea infrastructure in the Baltic Sea. We can expect to see those kinds of attempts if the conflict continues in the wider Atlantic and possibly even in our own waters.
The Coast Guard brings real capability with regard to surveillance of that infrastructure. It brings real capability in its ability to transport Canadian Forces members as necessary.
