Thank you, Chair.
Through you, I'd like to thank the witnesses for being here this morning.
I'll start with Ms. Hadwen.
Ms. Chan mentioned the current conflict in the Middle East, so I'm going to focus a bit on that. In light of the current conflict and the disruption to global energy flows, what does this moment tell the Department of National Defence about the importance of resilient domestic supply chains for both energy inputs and dual-use minerals when planning for Canadian Armed Forces' readiness and allied commitments?
