We need to increase spending to ramp up recruiting

Our equipment is in need of maintenance and upgrade. Our troops need to be able to train and to train they need ammunition, rations, good equipment, better uniforms, etc. Our northern territories are exposed. The Canadian rangers need more resources and an actual base in each northern territory, and not just in Yellowknife, Iqaluit, and Whitehorse. We need to ramp up North West Passage patrols. It's embarrassing that China has been flying recon balloons in our territory and we had to ask America to shoot them down. Our ability to protect ourselves and our northern sovereignty has become a joke and the great members of our military deserve better.
