With no end in sight to Putin’s aggression, NATO allies are stepping up. Canada is the latest country to announce tanks for Ukraine following Poland, the United States, Germany and others.

But as Canada’s international commitments ramp up, a dire lack of personnel and equipment are prompting concern over whether Canada’s defense has the resources to uphold NATO commitments. ‘The West Block’ host Mercedes Stephenson sat down with Gen. Wayne Eyre, chief of the defence staff, to discuss the state of the Canadian military.

Plus, as the return to Parliament approaches, we’re looking at some of the hot-button political issues ahead. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the premiers will be trying to ink a new health-care deal, and the rising cost of living isn’t slowing down soon.

‘The West Block’ host Mercedes Stephenson spoke with Parliament Hill veterans The Globe and Mail’s Ottawa bureau chief Robert Fife, and Stephanie Levitz from the Toronto Star, to analyze the tactics the Conservatives and Liberals are leaning on and whether those will really resonate with Canadians.
