Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
The Paul Martin government allocated $15 billion to the military in the 2005 budget to start rebuilding the forces. The Harper government has announced moneys. Now we're in a situation where money is becoming increasingly tight.
How realistic do you see this? Given the current economic climate and given the $56-billion-plus deficit that we're in, are you really going to see, at least in the foreseeable future, much of this Canada First defence strategy by the government coming to fruition, given the fact that all these announcements are made but there's no delivery because, really, there isn't any money?
