Except it does hire. That’s an antiquated view. And a misunderstanding of the current generations and their motivations that we are targeting. Correct. For various reasons. Some that could be mitigated with retention incentives. I don’t disagree. Disagree. It competes with entry level...

The CAF does not do the usual things though. The problem is that the CAF is one of those organizations that just can’t hire laterally from anywhere else. Yes other very specific trades or what not or maybe from some peer state militaries but overall we are predominately an organisation that...
