As forest fires displace tens of thousands of Canadians, Mark Carney announced a massive increase in military spending Monday to overcome “threats which felt far away and remote [that] are now immediate and acute”.

Balsillie School of International Affairs PHD candidate Tamara Lorincz joined Talking Foreign Policy to discuss Carney’s boost to war spending, an Auditor General report on the cost of F-35s and NATO pushing to increase military spending even further.
