Mr. Speaker, let me assure the member opposite that we are ensuring that our Canadian Armed Forces has the equipment it needs to protect Canadians. On Monday, when we announced the procurement of the 88 fighter jets and the top-ranked bidder, this brought us one step closer to a new fleet of state-of-the-art fighter jets for our Royal Canadian Air Force. This is going to ensure that our pilots have the most effective tools they need to do their jobs, to defend our country, to defend our Arctic and to participate in NORAD and NATO.

Mr. Speaker, replacement fighter jets are delayed. Replacement pistols for the army are delayed. Polar icebreakers are delayed. Fixed-wing search and rescue are delayed. Arctic offshore patrol ships are delayed. Surface combatants are delayed. Joint supply ships are delayed. Rusted out, second-hand jets from Australia are on time. When did the Liberals decide to go from strong, secure and engaged to delayed, weak and second-hand?
