| Message | Mr. Speaker, The HRA stands firmly against a change to our nation's policy regarding landmines. The use of landmines greatly increases the possibility of civilian casualties in war, and can lead to unnecessary fatalities for generations after a conflict. We will vote against the proposal. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker The liberal use of landmines by the Hutorian Army would lead to countless and unneeded civilian deaths when combat operations cease. We can not support their reintroduction into the Hutorian Armed Forces arsenal. John Fancy (L-FA) Liberal Defence Critic Senator for Fort Carter |
