Canada submarine bid hopeful but remains unclear: Lee

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung stated that South Korea's bid for Canada's submarine project remains uncertain, despite high hopes. During a recent meeting at the G7 summit, Lee discussed the matter with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney but did not receive clarity on the outcome. South Korea's Hanhwa Ocean is competing against Germany's ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems for the contract, which involves building 12 diesel-powered submarines valued at approximately $39.3 billion.

Why these scores (Factual 85 · Objective 80): The article provides specific quotes from President Lee Jae Myung and details about the Canadian submarine project, aligning with general knowledge of the event. However, there is no mention of any official confirmation or denial from Canada regarding South Korea's bid, which leaves some ambiguity.
