Thanks very much, Mr. Chair.

Minister, it's great to see you here.

Ms. Lloyd and Mr. Bilodeau, thank you for being here.

I have a couple of questions, but I'll start with Ms. Lloyd.

Does the procurement of these vessels pose a national security threat to Canada? I just want to be clear on the answer—yes or no.

From your perspective, your expertise and where you work—Mr. Bilodeau, I'll ask you to chime in as well—to be clear with Canadians.... From your perspective, your intelligence and your work, can you talk to us about that? Does it pose a threat to Canadian citizens, yes or no?
