Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Minister, thank you very much.
First, I'd like to thank you both for your visits to my riding in the Bay of Quinte this summer to visit CFB Trenton and 8 Wing. General Carignan, I'd also like to thank you for your visit in August and the announcement you made there.
Minister, your announcement of the $850-million investment in CFB Trenton, specifically, was very well received and appreciated by those stationed there and their families. I've had the opportunity here, first-hand, some of that over the summer.... It's been very well received.
This important project of $850 million in infrastructure is strengthening our operational capabilities and supporting economic growth in my riding. Can you tell us a little more about the modernization efforts specific to our air mobility—as it affects my region, with CFB Trenton and 8 Wing—and the impact of those infrastructure upgrades at 8 Wing?
