There are many items that make no sense. Based on what you posted I would say that there are some  'silly' subjects that are not being discussed/reported anyplace.
I should really stop repeating myself however my other post in this thread really is accurate. The context of this has been changed so that citizens can deal with it rather than make it appear as if Canada is  "doing what Trump says" in a you-are-not-the-boos-of-me which seems to me to be incredibly childish and real real expensive.
If this was being reported and editorialized  from the actual source (Tuesday speech) rather than from the palatable (U.S. died) version than this spending does almost nothing in meeting the Freeland objectives.  It doesn't even make a significant dent in NATO 2% spending.  That's great  but what I don't understand is why people just ignore this. They are just happy to be getting new stuff. Why don't people ask what the objective of spending 60 billion is?

Maybe I should keep posting.
