I certainly agree with you, I wish we did not have to invest in weapons.
All this money only really flows to the top and helps protect the interests of those at the top.
Instability in the world is tough to see. I think if we do need to build weapons we should be making investment to build them here in Canada. After all, should anything happen, having the technical skills at home becomes a vital asset.
We don't have to invest in weapons. Nobody aside from the US is threatening Canada, and it's pretty clear that sending billions to the US military industries isn't going to make Canada more secure.
It will make things worse because it will ensure that big corps have a reason for Canada to use the weapons. God, what a shit show! Sorry y'all.
