Minister McGuinty Marks Canadian Armed Forces Day

The Honourable David J. McGuinty, Minister of National Defence, issued the following statement today in recognition of Canadian Armed Forces Day:

“Today, we honour the brave members of the Canadian Armed Forces and thank them for their unwavering dedication to our country. Whether serving at home or abroad, they uphold peace, freedom, and democracy with professionalism, resilience, and a deep commitment to Canadian values.

Members of the Canadian Armed Forces work tirelessly to protect Canada’s sovereignty, support communities in times of crisis, and stand shoulder to shoulder with our allies to promote global peace and security.

In a world of growing threats, we must secure Canadian sovereignty by strengthening our military. That’s why we are making historic investments in our defence capabilities-modernizing equipment, embracing cutting-edge technology, and reinforcing security infrastructure in the North. These efforts ensure that our Forces are ready to meet today’s challenges and those of tomorrow.

Supporting our military means supporting its people. We are working to improve housing, childcare, health care, and career opportunities for CAF members and their families-because their well-being is a national priority.

To all current and former members of the Canadian Armed Forces, and to your families: thank you. Your service and sacrifices represent the very best of Canada. I am proud to stand with you and deeply grateful for all you do in service to our nation.”
