Mr. Speaker, for 10 years the Liberals have promised our military new helicopters to replace the aging Sea Kings, but all the military has seen since 1993 is excuses, delays and political interference in the procurement process.
Now we have heard that despite the fact that NHI Eurocopter did not meet pre-qualification, DND bureaucrats and some high profile Liberal friends seem to be working overtime to ensure the Eurocopter is kept in the running.
Why is the Liberal government continuing to interfere with the Sea King replacement process?
