Madam Speaker, I listened with interest to my colleague's speech. I know he has followed defence matters very closely over the years and is a former parliamentary secretary of defence. I wanted to know his thoughts with respect to where climate change fits into all of this and whether or not he understands and recognizes climate change to be not only a matter of environmental concern but also a matter of national security. When ice melts, to be very simple about it, the Russians and the Chinese see that, and the Arctic becomes a focus for them. Is climate change a national security threat, from the member's perspective, yes or no?
