Mr. Chair, I have to say honestly that I've rarely ever been more patronized by a witness before this committee, particularly by a minister.
I had a very specific question: whether $9 in military expenditures to $1 in international development, diplomacy, and peacekeeping was in fact an accurate ratio. I got no response whatsoever, so I want to ask the question again.
I know that you have stated we can get the details on defence spending from the defence department, but I can't believe for a moment that when you have been aware that this question has been raised again and again you're not in a position to give an answer to it. If you're not today, I would ask you to provide an answer to the committee following this meeting.
Secondly, I had asked very specifically for numbers on our PRTs in Kandahar. How many CIDA employees are there? How many defence employees are there? Let me add to that: are there other personnel from any other sources in those PRTs?
