Mr. Chair, budget 2019 includes important measure to support the Canadian Armed Forces, including renewing our missions in Ukraine, Iraq, Lebanon and Jordan. In addition, it allocates nearly $19 million in support of Canadian Armed Forces members transitioning over to civilian life.
Once again, unlike the previous government, we are investing in the women and men of the Canadian Armed Forces, specifically through our defence policy and the investments we are making to provide them with the necessary equipment and training. That is what they need, and they are very pleased that our government is investing in them every day.
