Mr. Speaker, in fact, our commitment to our pilots would be to procure planes that actually work.
Let us talk about the budget for a moment. The chief financial officer of the U.S. Department of Defense released new numbers on the cost of the F-35. These planes will be rolling off the line at a cool $200 million. That is more than double what the Conservatives have been claiming.
With production delayed by several years, taxpayers have the right to know how many planes will the government buy and how much will each one cost?
