For us it's not a question of doing either/or. We do both. The Canadian Army's LAV 6.0 has clearly shown that our soldiers can have the very best equipment in the world – designed, manufactured and supported right here in Canada. It's also shown that the economic benefi ts are resonating to all regions of our country through a strong supplier base of more than 500 Canadian companies. With the technological innovations incorporated in the LAV 6.0, including the life-saving Double-V TM Hull, we are pursuing signifi cant opportunities in the export market.
