Lawson will also have to deal with the military's planned purchase of Lockheed-Martin F-35 Lightning II stealth jets that are intended to replace the aging CF-18 Hornet fighter jets.
Earlier this year, Canada's Auditor General, who oversees federal government spending, criticized the Department of National Defence for not running a fair competition into the F-35 purchase and warned the aircraft could cost 25 billion Canadian dollars (25.25 billion U.S. dollars), nine billion more than the cost estimate for the U.S.-led project.
