    Seems wasteful expense, meant as increased defense against Russia needed because we will keep aggressing Russia with more expense. Cheaper defense would be better relations with Russia. Isolating further from China, India, Russia, Mexico/South America, Palestine/Iran seems like our strategy for dealing with US, which would suggest that resistance to US is just some temporary gas lighting, because isolating ourselves will not work out.

        We don’t have unlimited money to fight trade war or help Canadians cope with it. Spending like we do on military crowds out decisions to help Canadians later.
