Thank you, Mr. Norlock. I know you are indeed a very fierce supporter and defender of all things Trenton, and I thank you for that.
DND, through these supplementary estimates, is receiving funding from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. It might sound counterintuitive to some that a base located in central Canada, or “Upper Canada”, as we say down home, would be receiving a transfer from fish, but this is to help with the renovation—you're right—of the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre, the JRCC, which is part of a secondary centre located in Belleville, Ontario, and also in your riding, I believe.
This is, I'm told, for such things as wiring and lighting—renovations, essentially, to this particular work station at the site in Belleville. They have a new classroom for the armoury and an expansion of their ops room. These renovations have been deemed necessary to continue their critical support of the Canadian Forces personnel in their work, in decent facilities.
The honourable member would also know that we're building a number of new installations to accommodate our special forces, which will also be located at this site. There's a total of $623 million for projects that have been implemented at the base in Trenton since the year 2006.
