I am aware of that, and respectfully, our time is a bit short.
My concern is that the actual Minister of Defence was a major lobbyist for a company, and I think, inside DND, you are willing to eventually have those kinds of trucks. I'm talking about Stewart & Stevenson.
As an officer, are you comfortable with the idea that a minister who once had access to National Defence as a lobbyist should be the person approving selection criteria for these trucks? Would you be more comfortable if the minister recused himself?
