Mr. Speaker, I do not know if the Prime Minister has been watching the news. There is a big fight there. There is a big fight all over the world in the war on terrorism. One of the most respected military leaders in our country, General Lewis MacKenzie, has criticized the Prime Minister for his statement that we will pull out if our troops face conflict there. This seems to be a reiteration of his policy during the gulf conflict where he said that it was good the troops were there but that if anybody started shooting they would come home.
Canadians will always work on plans for peace but we have never run from a fight for freedom.
