Mr. Sampson, I'm going to ask this question and pre-empt it with a bit of a statement. I want to get your reaction or insight into this.
Whatever theatre of operation the Canadian government sends the military to, whether it be a combat mission or a peacekeeping mission—you said “multi-dimensional mission” and “special duty service”, and there are numerous others—the personnel are trained with specific skills. They're deployment-ready and possess skills the average person on the street does not have or is willing to commit to. They all wear the uniform.
What you're saying to me is that it doesn't matter what theatre they go to. Their benefits should be based on their service, not theatre of operation. Is that what I'm understanding?
