Following hurricane Dorian, within a week there were 700 troops on the ground in Nova Scotia. This time there were only 200. The province, as the premier said this week, had asked for 1,000 and I think 500 have been provided or maybe a little over that now. Can you explain to me why, when a request comes in from a premier saying they need 1,000, the federal government does not supply the required numbers that the provincial emergency preparedness office is requesting?
