Pretty obvious that Canadians are threatened and harmed more by wildfires and wildfire smoke than by Russia or China or any threat that can be solved by military spending.
Go ahead and compare how much coverage there is of entire Indigenous communities being burned to the ground versus the air quality in Toronto. Media is also infrastructure.
@BartFurley Can't agree.
Half of Jasper burned and the premier politicized it instead of calling on the feds for help. If a major tourist town burning can't change minds, energy or attitudes, nothing will.
The skies are orange, people are fleeing wildfires in boats, other parts of the country are flooded, housing is still unaffordable, food bank use is skyrocketing, healthcare is crumbling, all while Canada spends on the military and AI, but it’s okay, we have a “strong economy”
