Mr. Speaker, that question gives me an opportunity, as someone who flew on the Sea King helicopter, to rise in this House and say that the gall of the Liberal Party to even talk about defence spending in this House after the decade of darkness when they took our men and women in the Canadian Armed Forces and whittled them down to a voluntary force is shameful.
Over the course of our government, there has been $6 billion in new spending. We have provided needed equipment and uniforms and training, and morale is up as a result.
We will never let the Liberals do that again.
