Great interview. What matters most is how we respond to various risks to the survival of countries and our economies.... The slope is very slippery right now, and until we know more of the particulars we just give politicians a pass without questions. Not good enough.
I think what Canada has to do with its extra defence billions is sorting out the Arctic, build a couple of bases, start deploying naval and air assets up there permanently and participating with our Nordic cousins in the exercises and planning in the region. It is our one unique patch that we have neglected for decades. It would also be a meaningful contribution to NATO and to the stymying of Russia. Getting onboard with AUKUS would be helpful in the submarine department as a related thought.
Great interview. So happy to “meet” the so very well informed and practical Minna Alexander.
This was an insightful interview, Paul. Thanks.
Thank you for this interview, including the spot-on questions about the coalition of the willing and the current view of Canada’s role.

I would be so proud to see the CAF in Finland. Let’s go!
People are watching and listening and if like me.......not happy with the craziness!
