Mr. Speaker, nobody believes them. After 10 years of the Liberals, our warships are rusting out, our fighter jets are worn out, and our troops are burnt out. Today, the Canadian Armed Forces is short 13,000 troops, due to the Liberals' recruitment and retention crisis. An additional 10,000 personnel are under-trained and non-deployable. Over the past decade, the Liberals lapsed $12 billion in defence spending and cut $2.7 billion from the military over the last year.
Why would our troops believe anything the Liberal government says, since the Liberals are responsible for breaking our military?
