Okay. Perhaps you and I can speak outside of committee at some point, because I would love to hear your insights.
Professor Lackenbauer and Dr. Huebert, I really listened to what you had to say. One thing that is often understated is our Arctic sovereignty.
Before we get to that, Dr. Huebert, you talked about putting the Coast Guard into National Defence. Is that simply, in your view, a matter of meeting our national targets to placate, perhaps, or to address international commitments? As far as I know, the Coast Guard serves no proper defence function. If fired upon, they retreat. They are not military or defence—not in the traditional sense that I would think of, anyway.
Could you give any comments on that, please?
