Steven MacKinnon Liberal
“We will keep our pilots safe. The Conservatives spent very little on the military when they were in power, so we will not take their advice on defence and veterans.”
“Mr. Speaker, the minister has spoken very eloquently about our need to be the adults, to be responsible and keep our pilots safe, and that is exactly what we are going to continue to do. However, it is the temerity, the gall of the Conservatives to stand in this House, the 0.99% of GDP crew here, giving lectures. We will take no lessons on defence spending, on defence investments, on investments in our veterans, on investments in our armed forces and equipping our men and women in uniform. Those Conservatives— Some hon. members: Oh, oh!”
