Mr. Chair, thank you very much.
Thank you to our witnesses for being here. Thank you for your service and expertise.
I'd like to start with a question to Mr. Brown.
Mr. Brown, I wonder if you could briefly sketch for the committee your assessment of the strategic threat setting that the country faces in 2018, with particular attention to the two principal threats, being cyber-directed activities, and also the risk of terrorist attacks, violence, extremism, radicalization, both domestically grown and/or foreign inspired.
How do those two compare against each other, and are there any other threats that we need to take note of in 2018?
