Let me refer to two scenarios. One is our involvement in Afghanistan, where the Canadian Forces earned a high reputation. It is a view expressed by our partners or other members of our alliances that Canada can now be counted on to deploy well-trained, effective troops who will go in and do the job as well as or better than anybody else.
The other scenario concerns the operations in Libya. I remind you that the major European and North American powers are now willing to have their forces placed under the command of the Canadian lieutenant-general who commanded the operation in Libya. I don't think I can point to anything more strongly expressed than that, in terms of our good reputation. It's been earned by the forces.
