Stephen Fuhr Liberal
“We are buying planes, submarines, radar, and ammo faster and spending more money on the military than Canada has in generations. I want the Conservatives to vote for military spending at committee instead of opposing it.”
“Mr. Speaker, there is a very good reason why that member does not want to talk about history, and I think we all know what that reason is. We have never moved faster on the procurement for our military of aircraft, subs, radar and ammo. This is the most we have spent, and the fastest we have moved, literally in generations. We could use the Conservatives’ support. What would be beneficial is if at committee they would support the supplementary estimates by voting for spending money on our military, something that member refuses to do.”
