		No consideration is given to the fact that Diefenbaker was the democratically elected leader and that it was his and the cabinet's responsibility alone to make the decisions concerning the utilization of the fleet.
		Douglas Harkness, minister of defence at the time, is portrayed as a fine fellow because he agreed with the navy brass that the RCN should fully support Kennedy's blockade of Cuba.
		But when a minister uses his political prerogative against the wishes of the naval staff, as Paul Hellyer did in unifying the armed forces, he is portrayed as an incompetent, immoral schemer.
