I know I have a strong Canadian readership here on Substack, so in case you missed this video on YouTube this week… Here it is.
Canada NATO 2% defense spending just hit the target, but the real story is what Canada has been doing the entire time. In this video, I break down how Canada crossed the 2% threshold, why that number is more political than practical, and the real-world contributions that actually matter on today’s battlefield.
I walk through Canada’s role training tens of thousands of Ukrainian troops, leading NATO forces in Latvia, and delivering billions in military and financial aid that doesn’t show up in a simple GDP metric.
After all, if I told you that someone was spending 2% of their salary on groceries each month, you would have no idea if they were eating well.
Check out the video and have a great Easter.
