Canada Hit 2% NATO Spending… But Something Feels VERY Wrong
from Tap The Maple · host Bakes On Things
Canada has officially hit NATO’s 2% defence spending target for the first time in over a decade… but is this really a win?In this episode of Tap the Maple, we break down the reality behind the headlines. Yes, Canada is now spending over $60 billion on defence, but how did we get here so quickly? And more importantly… what is it costing Canadians?While the government celebrates this milestone, deficits remain high, debt continues to grow, and everyday Canadians are still struggling with affordability. So why are we being told that affordability is “the best it’s been in 10 years”?We dig into the numbers, the narrative, and the growing gap between what Canadians are told… and what they actually feel.Is this responsible leadership, or just more spending without accountability?If no one is watching the money… what happens next?
