There have been a few starts and stops in replacing the LSVWs and HLVWs. They're the workhorses of our land forces. Here in Canada, they're deployed on domestic operations and used in training, and they were sent overseas to Afghanistan. They're older than some of our colleagues sitting in the House of Commons, and they sometimes run for 24 hours a day, for days at a time. They are badly in need of replacement.
Sidearms like the SIG P320s are badly needed.
Do you know how long it took, Minister, to replace the rifles the Canadian Rangers use? Do you know the length of time?
