Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to everyone for coming today.
Dr. Perry, I'm going to start with you. I have a couple of questions on procurement.
I align very much with what you said about needing to have our procurement process updated for the current ecosystem we see today. One of the things I've been saying, over and over, is that we need to get out of 1999 and update our procurement processes to ensure that innovation and small business can be at the forefront of helping with our R and D and dual-use technology.
You're an expert in defence procurement. What struggles or failures have you identified in Canada's defence procurement today?
