Canada has 1/10 of the population and it's military is so gutted that it's last true Destroyer, the HMCS Athabascan was scrapped 5 years ago. The Canadian military is so woke and broke, that they'll allow you to cross-dress, have any length hair you want, have any color hair you want and have facial tattoos and be overweight and the active component or reserves will still accept you.
The Canadian military doesn't have the money and the American Military won't have it either because our stupid Administration thinks that the biggest existential threat is Golf Delta climate change when a limited nuclear war will give you that climate change and you don't have to spend trillions of dollars to lower the Earth's temperature 2.7° Fahrenheit or whatever it is because it won't happen even if we all stopped using fossil fuels in the internal combustion engine tomorrow. The National Geographic Nuclear War between India and Pakistan scenario will give 20 years of cooler weather, famine and all the cooler weather the Greenies want from the soot caused by fires from the aftermath of just a few nukes. This story in the comments.
Just think of all the money wasted in the last 2 years or the last 3 months with the inflation reduction act had 320 billion dollars that were part of the Church of the Green New Deal Swindle part 1 which could have been used to help keep 27 ships from being moved to the reserve Fleet or it could have been used in other ways but this Administration is too fanatic to do things correctly so do you expect them to defend the Arctic and improve the archaic and old distant early warning? Of course not! This Administration will still try to find ways to sneak in more money for the Church of the Green New Deal so you can have these components made in China with electricity made from coal.
The United States military will be hollow again just like it was in the 1970s because this Administration has its priorities totally reversed. It wants to give money to people to not work and it wants to give Equity to those who don't deserve it and who have no desire to work or to be self-sufficient.
Neither country has the will because both countries care more about climate change protocols that hurt our economy and increased human suffering among the population instead of an improved defense posture to avoid being jumped or attacked by a near-peer enemy like Russia or China.
