Mr. Speaker, the Minister of National Defence just said that the helicopter file was moving ahead, which is good news because that is more than the helicopters are doing. He also said that there was a $50 million upgrade.
The fact of the matter is that most of the $50 million will go to replace engines and gearboxes in those helicopters that all other countries have already replaced. There are no new radios, no new equipment and no upgrades.
Where are the $50 million upgrades? Exactly what new capacity is there? Exactly what new capability is there? Where are the $50 million upgrades?
