Mr. Speaker, by now we all know about the emergency meetings the government has called, two of them in fact, and one even being hosted by the minister in Washington at the end of this week. Yet, the same minister continues to tell Canadians that everything is on track. No wonder Canadians have lost confidence in the government's ability to manage this file.
The Japanese and the British are also nervous, issuing warnings about production delays and the price escalation of this plane.
Will the minister tell the House today how many planes the government is buying, by what date and at what price?
