Mr. Speaker, let us separate the fiction and actually have some reality here. Most of our troops are not seeing a bump in their paycheque because the Liberals continue to claw it back at every opportunity. Rents are up by more than 5% for military housing. Housing support is down in more than 10 of the major housing posting locations. These reckless cuts are making retention and readiness much worse.
How can our brave women and men who serve in the Canadian Armed Forces trust these Liberals when they give with one hand and claw back with the other?
Will the defence minister reverse these bad policies and actually start improving the retention of our brave women and men?
