claiming Canada has failed to meet its commitments on defence spending.

Translation: theyre angry that Canada isn't doing 100% of its defense spending with American millitary suppliers.

Exactly so. Good riddance anyhow, we can build more of our own, and buy from other suppliers. Fuck the US grift.

We'll build our own defense industry, with blackjack, and hookers!

I have a new petition: can we please name the next two pieces of Canadian military hardware blackjack and hooker?

Oh no! How will this affect the glorious Golden Dome project we’re all 100% sure is totally going to happen and isn’t a massive fraud and is, like, I can’t stress this enough, a totally real project that is very much needed?????

Makes sense. The usa is more about war, conquering, and energy theft than any pretenses of "defense". Or, maybe they are waffling and on "de fence"? Not sure by the headline.
