Thank you very much.
The CDS spoke of the threat environment in Canada having changed significantly. Yet in the past two years, when our nation was most vulnerable, having a federal government lurching from one failed measure to the next dealing with COVID, the military was stood down. Troops were sent home, and they delivered Uber Eats to make extra money. They couldn't train. They couldn't even go to the gym, because the gyms were closed. The basic training that's so badly needed, because we're sorely in need of new troops, stopped altogether.
Whose order was that? Was that the order of the CDS, or was it a political decision to shut things down like that?
