Mr. Speaker, I represent a riding that has a large base in it, Base Borden. There are many families who obviously support our men and women in uniform, continually.
Now that the mission involves more risk, all Canadians, particularly the families of the soldiers being deployed, will want to know how Operation Impact is going. Will the government hold regular technical briefings on the mission for these families?
The families on the base that I represent need information.
Will technical briefings be given on a regular basis to these families so they know exactly what is happening to their loved ones on the ground?
