Mr. Speaker, the minister should change his lines as they are no longer credible. Considering that we had another safety incident yesterday with the Sea Kings, that brings the total to nine in the last month that we know about.
Will the minister not admit that it was a mistake to cut funds out of the maintenance budget of our 35 year old Sea Kings that will now have to fly for another six to eight years, especially when the minister has no intention of even initiating the maritime helicopter program?
