		Rick Hillier: Daniel, I don’t have a sense of whether we will get asked to provide something specific because, as I say, and as we all know, the capacity in the United States of America is immense.
		Rick Hillier: Well, what it means is that there is a potential mission on the horizon for the DART or pieces of it depending on what might be needed.
		Rick Hillier: Chris, let me answer the second question first and say that we’re in a fortunate window of opportunity here with respect to the C-130 fleet to be able to assist the United States of America and Americans directly if that is a requirement, if that C-130 is a requirement.

		Hillier said the change is part of three priorities outlined in Canada’s new defense policy, which are to defend Canadians at home, work with the United States to ensure continental defense is carried out by both Canadians and Americans and increase stability in unstable places around the world.
		Hillier said the current relationship is very good and involves the exchange of various officers and individuals and the bi-national command of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) that leads them together toward being effective on behalf of both populations.
		Hillier said although the security situation continues to be challenging, he believes with the country’s newly elected president and with a government soon to be elected, the security will improve.

		Hillier defended the importance of Canada's mission in Afghanistan while a small group of protesters tried to spread the message outside that the mission hasn't been adequately explained to Canadians.
		Hillier was speaking one day after a House of Commons debate over the role of 2,300 personnel in Afghanistan, which came amid opinion polls that suggest Canadians are divided about the country’s role in the war-torn region.
		Hillier, who plans to return to Afghanistan in two weeks, said Canada has been a target on terrorist hit lists since the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, and that hasn’t changed.

	Rick "Kill the Scumbags" Hillier Seeks Recruits at Carleton
		Rick Hillier packed the Alumni Theatre on Thursday evening, September 22, and gave him a prolonged ovation before he even began to speak.
		But some other students were not so impressed by Hillier, having apparently seen through the immaculate, be-medalled and jovially conversative exterior to what Hillier refers to as his"tough" side, which does tend to come across as somewhat crass and violent.
		Hillier seems to have followed that advice, and is firmly deluded that the military are creating new and wondrous possibilities for people in "failed" countries.

		The problem, if there is one for General Rick Hillier, has been the absence of unfettered military advice from the top soldier in the land since the integration of the Defence Department's military and civilian staff in the early 1970s.
		They repeat the latest popular theory that the prime motivating influence behind suicide bombers is the desire to rid their "homeland" of foreign armies and that perverse religious interpretations and the clash of civilizations have nothing to do with their cause.
		Hillier's deductions are as valid as those who write books on the subject.

		Hillier was chosen over two other main contenders, both navy men - the deputy chief of defence staff, Vice-Adm. Greg Maddison, and the vice-chief of defence staff, Vice-Adm. Ron Buck.
		Hillier earned a reputation as a strong proponent of the army over Canada's other two military services, even to the point where he ruminated in memos over the need for so much spending on the navy and air force.
		Hillier's views, however, seem to dovetail with those advocated in early drafts of the foreign policy and defence review, which informed military sources say promoted more of a continental security role for the navy and air force.

		Hillier has said that he intends to stop the practice of endlessly studying systems that DND cannot possibly afford.
		Hillier's new, more coherent, more highly integrated strategic plan will require, as a first step, the reallocation of funds recommended by former defence minister McCallum.

		The immediate goal of Hillier’s bluster is to increase public support for the deployment of CAF personnel outside of the immediate environs of Kabul, the seat of the US puppet regime of Hamid Karzai.
		General Hillier justified the expanded Canadian presence with the absurd assertion that the Afghan resistance to foreign occupation poses a threat to ordinary Canadians.
		Hillier has inherited a Canadian Armed Forces which the Martin government has committed to expand by 5,000 regular troops and 3,000 reservists, a commitment estimated to involve an increase in military spending of $400 million per year.

		But that's what bothers me most, Peter: General Hillier is not supposed to be a politician; in his job he is surely supposed to be smart enough to grasp the dangers of politicizing the military, and yet he did it.
		Hillier did not say that the, "number one job is killing people." He said that the, "number one job is to be able to kill people." That's a distinction I often see ignored.
		I imagine (hope) Hillier is talking about attacks on Afghani civilians and police, and the stated mission of the UN force to thwart them from taking the country back.
