Mr. Speaker, the minister is in a mathematical impossibility when she says that the government will build 15 frigates at a cost of $26 billion over 25 years, and when the navy says no assumption at all has been made about inflation. This matters. If inflation turns out to be the industry average of 8% rather than 0%, the government's number, she will end up buying five frigates instead of 15.
How could she display such incredible financial incompetence?
