I'd rather see Canada do military exercises in the middle of the winter during the harshest weather the far north can throw at us. That will prove we can defend the north

To do that, the party running the government (Libs or Cons) would actually have to spend money to do so. Instead, it's far easier to have press conferences every six months announcing the same projects over and over.
