We have people who think.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187787\" data-originallang=\"en\">Speaking of really important issues, the Liberals are buying rusted-out fighter jets from Australia, even though the <a data-HoCid=\"214311\" href=\"/politicians/harjit-s-sajjan/\" title=\"Harjit S. Sajjan\">defence minister</a> actually said they would never buy used planes. We know these eighties-era jets are rusted out because a 2012 Australian report said corrosion was so bad that the number of active flying days had to be cut. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187788\" data-originallang=\"en\">This is not a bucket of bolts. This is a bucket of rusted-out bolts. Why are they going back on their word?</p>",

Sajjan\">ministre de la D\u00e9fense</a> avait pourtant dit qu'ils n'ach\u00e8teraient jamais d'avions d'occasion. Nous savons que ces chasseurs des ann\u00e9es 1980 sont rouill\u00e9s parce qu'un rapport publi\u00e9 en Australie en 2012 r\u00e9v\u00e9lait que la corrosion \u00e9tait telle que le nombre de jours de vol avait d\u00fb \u00eatre r\u00e9duit. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187788\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ce n'est pas un tas de ferraille.
