Mr. Speaker, I want to recognize the excellent work of our defence team, in addition to our associate defence minister for procurement, who has done a fantastic job in addition to the work of our shadow minister for defence.
The answer is clear. I will point out the change between Bill C-31 and Bill C-40. In Bill C-31, this position was not a minister, but was made so in Bill C-40. The reasoning is clear. The Liberals want more power for themselves. They want the ability to do things unilaterally without having the checks and balances in place. It is no surprise to me at all. The good issue that my colleague has raised is a question of control.
