To date, in my capacity as Minister for Defence, I have not spoken with the Canadian Minister of National Defence, Ms. Anita Anand PC MP.

However, I intend to engage collectively and bilaterally with international colleagues as and when the opportunities present themselves. In that regard, I look forward to an opportunity to speak or meet with the Canadian Minister of National Defence.
