Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government unveiled details of its plan to tighten government spending Thursday — and not all departments are feeling the same impacts.

Deep defense cuts, now? That’s certainly one way to approach a destabilising great power neighbour, a new cold war, and an ongoing peer conflict in Ukraine.

You only need to look at the CO2 targets we’ve committed to to see how much Canada’s commitment to anything means.

If the US continues to destabilize, we’re fucked anyway. Any aid we can provide to Ukraine is going to be us allocating funds to buy American weapons that we then ship off to Ukraine.
