Canada promises to spend 5% of GDP on defence by 2035 in pact with NATO leaders

If anyone believes Canada will ever hit this number I would advise you to put bong down.

Canada is NEVER going to hit 5%, even with the quite permissive accounting they are using to calculate this figure. There is a better chance the sun doesn't rise tomorrow than this figure ever being attained.

NATO leaders — including Canada — have approved a plan to dramatically increase defence spending across the Western alliance to five per cent of gross domestic product over the next decade, a decision that has given U.S. President Donald Trump a significant policy victory.

They gathered behind closed doors in the Netherlands on Wednesday, where the final details and potential grievances were hashed out.

"As the global landscape shifts, the collective security created by the [NATO] alliance remains the strongest and most effective way of protecting Canadian sovereignty and protecting the security of Canadians," Prime Minister Mark Carney said in The Hague on Wednesday.
