Should I expect the lefties to apologize for their past actions? Somehow I doubt it.
“Could we have done this 10 years ago? I don't think so. Not this fast and not to this degree,” said a military spokesman who described the total number of Canadian troops who would be deployed overseas as “historic.”
The Conservatives' legacy will be the rejuvenated Canadian Forces that has grown in numbers, pride, and capabilities since the Conservatives have taken office. Despite the caterwauls of those on the left.
With the focus this government has put on the military, with new personnel and new equipment Canadians are finally aware that they do more then deliver food and shovel snow, and have a new and profound respect for what our military does. A big improvement from the Liberal sponsored decade of darkness.
If the Liberals and the rest of the left had their way, or response to Haitian crisis would be much smaller, much later, and much less effective.
For that we have to thank the Conservatives.

Rock on! I remember watching Don Martin once on TV after Gordon O'Connor was appointed to Minister of Defense. Don expressed concern about having someone who really "gets" the Armed Forces running it. Some believe that people with no military background are better choices for Defense Minister.
That's what happens when your defense is prefixed by 'dept. of'...
Read somewhere that dragging our military out of the Decade of Darkness accounts for 20% of our current deficit....
I'll try to find the link.
Point is, when Iffy yips about PMSH inheriting a surplus,
can remind him PMSH also inherited an abused and underfunded military too.
Well Iggy just yaps. Most of the new program expenditures are for the military, security (RCMP, Border guards etc) and transfers to to the provinces.
Iggy criticizes the Government for sending money back down to the provinces to help them pay for their services, and not incur more debt or raise taxes.
Guess Iggy would rather have the provinces in dept then the feds, he doesn't realize that it is all the same taxpayer!
