Mr. Chair, this is not about advocacy. It is about saving very important, highly specialized, good-paying jobs not only for individuals, but also for the GDP as a whole, in both Quebec and Canada. It is important to protect these specialized jobs during crises and shortages. Quebec's aerospace industry is equivalent to Ontario's auto industry. Our GDP needs to be protected just as much. That said, according to the Defence Development Sharing Agreement between Canada and the United States of America, Canada is the United States' only industrial defence partner. It is therefore possible to require that F-35 maintenance be done here, in Canada. Will the minister demand that this maintenance be done here?
