Mr. Speaker, is it not much easier to build a nation when there is a truce and a peaceful settlement? That is my question.
If it is much easier, why do we not at least try to bring some kind of a truce and disarmament to that turbulent country? Why must we continue with a combat mission where we increase our troops every year with an indefinite end to this mission? Is it not worth trying some diplomatic solutions? Those are my questions to the member.
