Canada

Just for context, this is 20 years of the entire budget for medical research for all diseases in Canada. And, you can bet none of this spending is under critical peer review where 90% of proposals are not funded.

Most of the investment — approximately $32 billion — is being drawn from a pool of money set aside almost four years ago by former prime minister Justin Trudeau's government to modernize NORAD, the binational North American air defence command shared with the United States.

So not necessarily new funds, but perhaps a more solid plan on what it will be spent on.

Yeah, I can see why Lori Idlout would want to be in the government making decisions about those billions rather than hanging out in the opposition.

Traditionally about 70% of canadian defence spend went to america. Apparently now it will be zero and canadian industry will fill the gap. Canada has also reduced america to a tier3 supplier meaning they are on par with north korea. So no american businesses will be allowed to buy canadian firms without a 12 to 18 month security review that includes national security. american threats to Canada now put them in same security threat category as north korea, russia etc.
