Fed Issue #34 - Under Trudeau military spending at all time low.
Canada has not only not lived up to it's commitments of 2% of GDP military spending, nations like Egypt are now far better prepared and armed. I just read that Egypt just got it's new Type 209 sub (far better and newer than our used Upholder class... and actually able to sail) and see that our gov't won't spend money on that.... excess windmills, vacations with billionaires and nannies are OK though.
Egypt has 4 older subs and is getting 4 newer Type 209's

Canada's defence spending hits new lows under Trudeau
http://cnews.canoe.com/CNEWS/Canada/.../22717570.htmlCanada’s defence spending has hit historic new lows under the Trudeau Liberals and this puts the Canadian Armed Forces “at risk of catastrophic failure,” warns a new Senate report.
The government has decreased defence spending to a new low of just 0.88% of GDP, the Senate Committee on National Security and Defence report released Thursday reveals.
This news come only a day after U.S. President Donald Trump said NATO is “no longer obsolete” and reiterated his call for members of the alliance to pay their “fair share.”
All NATO countries have committed to spending 2% of their GDP on defence but Canada has consistently fallen short. While only five of the 28 member countries fufill this commitment, Canada ranks near the bottom of the list.

Canada needs to come up with a plan to protect itself against electromagnetic pulse attacks, the Senate’s national security and defence committee is advising.
