We continue to fight every day. Every procurement program for new equipment requires a gender-based analysis, or GBA plus. We really have to look at our population. It continues.
For the past two years, we have had an anthropometric database. We really studied all the women in the Canadian Armed Forces, their height, their measurements and so on, so we have a better idea of what we need in terms of equipment. That's part of the challenge.
The second part of the challenge is to ensure that the industry is able to deliver what is requested. There are certain pieces of equipment that are difficult to obtain. When you look at the cockpit of an aircraft, in terms of the size, the length of arms required and so on, you can't tailor the dimensions to 100% of the Canadian population. Where do you put the box so that everything fits? It's a difficult choice.
There are also things like ballistic protection plates, where the technology isn't yet adapted to our needs because we represent only a small percentage of global purchases. That's also a challenge. We're aware of it, and we're working on it.
