Mr. Speaker, that observation was made about our troops. It was not made about the support the government gives them.
On military matters, let me turn to today's Auditor General's report. The Auditor General told us that the government broke every rule in the book to award a sole source flight training contract to Bombardier. Not only was the contract sole sourced, but Bombardier provided less than half the training required under the contract.
How can this kind of waste be justified when the military is so starved for resources?
