Madam Speaker, I am not as well versed as the hon. member on that issue.
With respect to our relationship with the American military, it is co-operative. It is not incestuous. We do retain our autonomy. Our friends in the United States military understand that our soldiers are Canadian soldiers and not American soldiers in Canadian uniforms. That has always been very clear. Perhaps the hon member would be very interested to know of the enormous respect Canadian soldiers have in the United States when they help our friends in that country with their military initiatives.
As I said before, I am not as well versed as the member but I would certainly appreciate the member's giving me some information on this so I would be able to read about it and give him my opinion on it.
