The threat environment in which we are allctioning today is fundamentally different than it was three years ago, five years ago, ten years ago, certainly at the time tthe voluntary,

commitments to spend at least 2% of gdp on defense was, was originally enteredo a decade ago. So there's just no doubt that, canada needs to spend more. But that's not just the usgovernment in the white house, I think. I mean, minister blair believes that general believes that. I think that the canadian cabinet believes that or else itpproved the defense policy update. That was just it was just entered into what you're what you're seeing here is the lead up to the nato summit in a couple of months in july, in the united es. At the end of 2024, the way projections are looking, canada will be the only country in na that is not spending at least 2% of its gdp on defense and not have a plan to get there. And that end is very important. So that canada's gone has moved within nato from being, a bit of an outlier to being the outlier in the entire alliance. >> Jennifer: ten monafter torrential rain caused devastating ding in parts of nova scotia, there are residents ststruggling with the high cost of remediation and repairs.
