4 dead. 39 in hospital, 19 in critical condition. Terrible tragedy for the Canadian Army, but as MGen Rutland indicated, we know how to respond to these types of incident. We train for this. But it doesn't make the hurt any less. To 3 PPCLI and the LER, we mourn with you today.

One thing that I don't think people understand, military training doesn't stop for rain. It doesn't stop for wind. It doesn't stop for fire. Why? Because combat doesn't stop because of these factors. Yesterday was a tragedy, yes, but with the available info, it was normal until it wasn't.

We train to fight in the toughest of conditions. That means balancing on a knife's edge. To be combat ready, calculated risks must be taken. I mourn the dead, and I look forward to the outcome of the investigations. But now is not the time to try and assign blame.
