Mr. Chairman, we can get into a theatre of operation just as quickly as anyone can. We can get the lift we need to get into those operations and we can get our troops prepared, as we have demonstrated time and again.
We were one of the first to be in Kosovo. We were among the first to get into Eritrea, Ethiopia. We were one of the first to be in East Timor. We have been very quick to deploy into Afghanistan after we were asked to become a part of that operation. We do get our troops there. We do get them well trained, well equipped and ready to do the job.
No, we do not have every capability. It would take additional resources for those capabilities. As we go through the defence review update, the hon. member and perhaps many others will suggest that we look at those possibilities, but they also come with resource tags. We need to look at what we need and what kind of capabilities we can afford to have.
