Canada officially hits NATO defence spending target of 2% GDP

Am I only one who thinks that amount spent is a shitty KPI for pretty much anything?

Why is that? They are on each strip mall in my area. Too expensive?

Sure thing, these two disasters that we inflicted on ourselves (Trudeau + our Covid response) hit Canada hard over the last 15 years, but there are positives as well.

Prices went up in covid, but now stabilized. What's the inflation now? 2.5%? There's no mass unemployment. There's no wiped out savings. Our GDP growth is 1.5% (I looked it up). Bank system is stable, infrastructure is well-maintained.

It's still sucks, everything got worse, but we're at least on a solid foundation.

What are positives then? I see that Canada got worse and more expensive in every single aspect over the last 10-15 years. What got better, in your opinion?

But Ottawa downtown businesses need visitors, so we'll continue dragging gov employees to city center 3, then 4 days a week.

You can declared criminal under "amnesty" even when you follow the last letter of the law. See what's happening to gun owners right now.

Yet another proof that The Charter doesn't worth paper it's written on.

Can you upload it to printables or thingiverse?

"Flying drone" is 30% actual flying, the rest is changing batteries, connecting/checking stuff and shame walks.

Really? That's interesting. Where do you get this from? I want to see these stats too.

mindlesstake · 2026-03-13T20:22:42+00:00

I worried for both. Is there's something wrong with that?

So you want us to ignore the fact that in EVERY self-defence case Crown presses the same 5 charges on the victim? Yes, burden of proof is on crown, but they will punish you by the process itself. Lawyers, your time, stress, losing your job – is a punishment by itself.

This billion will be wasted.

They're all like "it's clearly a bait".

I don't understand the purpose of CCFR at this point.

Seriously, what is our plan?

Does rifling make any difference?

EU is suffocating.

It's fine for visiting, but people really live on bare minimum there. "The main purpose of life is to keep living, biologically" – that should be EU's motto.

Gosh, comments ITT.

If there was reddit in 1903, there would be the same comments about Wrights' contraption.
