That really doesn't leave any margins that I can see anywhere, other than perhaps the time interval from receiving, depending on the timing of when you receive bids, and following up and working with the bidders to finalize details for a contract. Unless you make up some time in there, you have no extra time. You've just said that it's three years, that assembly is expected to take three years. If we're late on this, we don't have the ability to defend and to meet our defence obligations with our allies or our own sovereignty. All I can say is that, from here on, everything needs to go like clockwork, on schedule. We just don't have time in this for the kinds of delays and the kinds of failures of procurement that we have seen in other programs.
I shudder to think of what many Canadians listening to this hearing might think has the potential to go wrong to get to 2025. I'm going to leave it at that.
