| Message | The free liberal party cannot accept Articles 3 and 4. Additionally we feel that Article 2 frankly does not go far enough. Plenty of women are extremely physically fit and capable of doing the physical work expected by men in the military. We do recognize that this number may be far lower than that of males, but it exists nonetheless. |

| Message | We feel it is our duty to protect women and children and we believe they should have the opportunity to join the military but away from any harm. We willreview other measures once we have seats in parliament. |
