Minister's Quotes

Excerpt from Minister of National Defence's closing remarks at Halifax International Security Forum:

"Ours is a Forum that is about going global but remembering that there are real consequences to our theories and practices.

We are a community charged with examining the linkages between problems…

… in order to find solutions.

Throughout the entire weekend, we've questioned our assumptions, challenged conventional thinking, pushed the debate on key security and defence issues…

…and as we leave here today, I thank you for challenging yourselves - and putting yourselves out there - in order to better our community.

Through our work here, we may secure a better path forward both here and on the other side of the world."
