I have a lot of questions on Mali, and I want to get to them. You announced in November 2016 in an interview you did with the Toronto Star on November 11—on Remembrance Day—that we were going to deploy 600 troops to Africa. Here we are, two years since the Prime Minister originally said that we were going to be deploying troops on UN peacekeeping. It hasn't happened yet. It's going to be August. Why is it taking so long?
On May 29th, 2018. See this statement in context.
