Mr. Speaker, I am always amazed at how the Liberal Party can twist facts and figures, and completely deny what it has done.
First, she says the Liberal government would work with NATO. The Liberals were the government until 2006. What did it do? Nothing.
Then she says that the mission in Afghanistan is of an undeclared time. The House passed a motion that the mission in Afghanistan is until February 2009 and that was very clear. Yet she wants to say an undeclared time. At the same time, she stands up and talks about the reconstruction of everything, as if Canada is not doing enough.
Perhaps the member can look at the Afghan compact and see what Canada is doing. She mentioned that Canada was building prisons. No, we are training police officers and the Afghan army. We are doing everything that is in the compact, and that was agreed to with the international community and the government of Afghanistan.
Perhaps the hon. member would read the compact and see what has been achieved in Afghanistan, and then make an informed decision on these things.
