Mr. Speaker, Canadian Force Morale and Welfare Services is a trusted partner in the defence enterprise. They provide important services to our members. We have met with both parties, and we are encouraging them to meet again at the bargaining table. CFMWS will continue to work with union representatives to reach agreements and to minimize impacts to CAF members. CAF members and their families are our top priority, and providing the supports that they require remains our priority.

Madam Speaker, I think we all remember when the Conservatives set back defence capability by years when they reduced defence expenditures to below 1% of our GDP. We are committed to the significant and strategic long-term investments that will ensure that the CAF continues to function as an agile combat-ready force capable of making tangible contributions and delivering on our commitments. At the same time, we must ensure that all expenditures are carefully controlled so each dollar produces real value for Canadians.
