Mr. Speaker, the hon. member cannot assume who got it and who did not get it. He does not know. He is guessing.
It is in accordance with a general provision for people in the public service. It was also provided for the people in the Canadian forces. I might add that in terms of the rank and file, there have been two increases to close the gap between public service and Canadian forces personnel this year, one on April 1 and one on October 1. We are also working on another economic increase which will certainly give the rank and file of the Canadian forces a very deserved increase in pay.
