When we visited CFB Petawawa, we had a light armoured vehicle operator accompanying us. He showed us around in the vehicle, and we talked to him about the challenges he faced. He was a young soldier. He told us he was very happy with the pay increase and our commitment to housing changes and improvements. That said, he got his gunner certification two years ago, but since then, the lack of ammunition has prevented him from training to become operational if sent to Latvia, for instance.
Will the government's investments ensure that our soldiers have the ammunition they need for training and better operational capability when they are deployed?
