Foreign Affairs committee  As you mentioned, the Indo-Pacific strategy has been identified as a policy priority for the government, both in mandate letters and in the Speech from the Throne. That policy is under development, and our advice to ministers continues to be prepared, so I'm not in a position to speak to the timelines for that at this time.

Foreign Affairs committee  Again, the exact nature of the approach to communicate this both diplomatically and publicly, I can't speak to, but the anticipation is that yes, it will be.

Foreign Affairs committee  Mr. Chair, with your permission, I'd like to turn to my colleague Kevin Hamilton from our international security bureau to provide a response on that.

Foreign Affairs committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I'm pleased to be here today to respond to questions on the situation regarding Taiwan, together with colleagues from the international security bureau and legal and trade policy bureaus at GAC, as well as, of course, our head of mission in Taipei, the executive director of the Canadian trade office in Taipei, who stayed up late especially.
