Canada Pledges To Spend More On Defense
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau speaks as he's joined by National Defence Minister Bill Blair during a press conference regarding Canada's new defence policy at CFB Trenton, in Trenton, ON, Canada, Monday, April 8, 2024. Canada, under U.S. pressure to boost defense spending, on Monday pledged billions more for the armed forces and said military expenditures would be closer to the NATO target by 2030. In a defense policy update, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal government said protecting the Arctic, as well as dealing with challenges from Russia and China, meant Ottawa needed to do more. "We are stepping up once again, to preserve and defend the rules-based order that has allowed people around the world to prosper," he told reporters. Photo by Sean Kilpatrick/CP/ABACAPRESS.COM
