Mr. Speaker, they are being authorized to go for a peacekeeping mission and they are being deployed for that purpose. They are combat capable. That is part of their general training. The equipment they are taking is among the best. The Coyote has in fact state of the art surveillance capability. It is well protected and has all of the things needed. I think the hon. member must have outdated information.
In fact, all of the vehicles, the Coyotes, the Bisons and the Griffons, that are going are all less than nine years of age, each one of them.
