The Globe and Mail has a story about Stephen Harper pledging more support for the Military:
“The men and women who put on the uniform of Canada must have the tools they need to
protect themselves and to do their job,” Mr. Harper said at a hotel across from Canadian Forces Base Trenton.He said the extra money would help buy at least three big, strategic transport planes, re-establish an airborne force and double the size of the DART, the humanitarian team which most recently was used in the aftermath of the Pakistan earthquake.
Mr. Harper is really covering all bases this campaign - I doubt there is a single Canadian that he has not attempted to appeal to in his the campaign - but will it work?
