Mr. Speaker, I would dispute those numbers.
We have invested in the Canadian forces some 20% over the last three years. We will continue to invest in the coming years. There were cuts, yes, before that so that we could get our deficit eliminated, but we are investing. We are ensuring that our Canadian forces get the resources they need to do the job.
We want to make sure that the families of those victims, those people who died, are properly looked after as well.
