I would simply like to provide a correction. I have not read the document in its entirety. The article written by the journalists was entitled “The Canadian Forces, a “phantom army““. General Leslie was saying that he did not have the necessary manpower to be able to carry out all of the operations and all of the missions he was charged with. Of course, because the Regular Force is under strength, General Leslie managed, saying that he was going to use reservists.
On December 1st, 2009. See this statement in context.
