Mr. Speaker, it was said well in the throne speech. The comment in the throne speech is one which the foreign affairs minister, all members of the cabinet and all members of the government subscribe to and that is that we are going to ensure that the Canadian forces have the capabilities to do their jobs.
Lord Robertson, the secretary general of NATO, also said that Canada actually uses its defence budget better than most. We will continue to do that to make sure our troops have the training and the equipment they need to do the job.
