Mr. Speaker, they are doing such a great job he did not want to tell us for over a week when they did something.
The minister today hinted at a new defence white paper. A review of our military may be a good idea if only so that defence planning can be taken out of the hands of the minister and given to people who know what they are doing.
Many of our forces fear that a new defence white paper would simply be a way to justify reducing the size and the scope of the Canadian forces.
Will the minister commit that any new defence white paper will not reduce Canada's commitment to any of the objectives of the last white paper?
