Canada is earmarking $8 billion for defence over the next five years as part of its newly announced budget.
Within that allotted spending, $6.1 billion comes with a major focus on North American defence and modernizing NORAD, a pledge to continue with NATO commitments in Europe and a major defence policy review to determine what Canada's military needs to be able to do in a changing world. Yet the plan is still shy on details.
Global’s Abigail Bimman explains the possible reason why, what is known about the spending plan and if it meets NATO's targets.
