It does, and if I could be permitted to expand, I'm quite confident that the members of this committee, and all parliamentarians, are seized with the significant risks and threats that are posed by Russia. Its latest invasion into Ukraine is a reflection of the destabilizing campaign that it is embarked upon. It hasn't only had a brutal and profoundly negative impact on the people of Ukraine; it has the potential to be destabilizing elsewhere, including here in Canada.
For instance, Russia's effort to promote a narrative that it went into Ukraine to de-nazify that country, or that it was in retaliation as a result of Ukrainian and Russian...is flat out false. The proliferation of those narratives online makes its way into the Canadian market, so we have to be very much alive to that.
Budget 2022 sets out investments that will help to address concerns around disinformation and misinformation, and the agencies that are represented at this table are very much seized with that work.
