Well, I'm quoting. It says “I'm told it's not the cost of fuel that had the impact, that it's really much more of a safety concern”, and in fact, the individual in question here...we're talking about a two-day delay.
I also would be quick to point out that the Canadian navy, when returning from deployments such as this, are also, of course, on call to respond, as they did in a heroic way, to pluck from the waters an army individual from Yemen who was fleeing a volcanic eruption. They were able to react very quickly, so of course one would expect they're going to be prudent with the use of fuel.
But they're certainly more concerned here about the waters, the safety of their sailors. They want to make sure they get home safely, and if it means a 24-hour or a 48-hour delay, I think that's reasonable. I can certainly assure you that, from what I'm hearing from Lieutenant-Commander Gagne, they're going to get home safely. That's the most important thing for Christmas and the best gift they could receive.
