We all know that the two soldiers who were killed were targeted because of their uniforms. It could happen again. Can you assure the committee that everything is being done to ensure our men and women are protected? They are a visible sign of everything we stand for as a nation. To this day it still hits home; people refer to both Vincent and Cirillo and the sacrifice they made for this country. I think Canadians want to know that their well-being is being looked after as much as possible when they're on the home front, on home soil.
