Mr. Speaker, I think I have already explained the numbers game that is going on here but here are the facts.
For years the border officers asked the Liberals for more officers so they would not have a situation where a man or woman was alone at night at a border point in a remote area of the country, but the Liberals said no, that they had to be there alone. When the border guards asked for other protection, the Liberals said no. We said yes.
What do the Liberals call the border officers who stand up for our protection and our security? They call them wimps.
That is where we need an apology from the Liberals. Those men and women are not wimps. They are dedicated professionals. They are securing our borders and we are proud to be helping them do that.
