Thank you.

I will now turn to the representative of the Coast Guard.

Essentially, Bill C‑12 allows for the integration of the Coast Guard into the military budget. I understand that you see this as an administrative merger rather than a military function. Your budget will fall under the Department of Defence, but no coast guard will have a military mission or mandate.

Have I understood correctly, Mr. Tettamanti?

See context to find out what was said next.
