On the contrary, Mr. Speaker, the Department of National Defence has seen unprecedented growth in investment during our time in office, whether it be investments in our infrastructure, equipment, support for our personnel and programs and our readiness.
We have been participating internationally, making a real difference in the world, as the Canadian armed forces has always done, building on the legacy and the greatness standing on the shoulders of our veterans.
Consistently the member and his party have opposed those measures to improve the lives of members of the Canadian Forces, their families and our veterans.
