Part of it goes back to what I was saying a while ago where the relationship with our allies is harmed by the fact that we're not paying for the deterrent umbrella that they are providing Canada right now. That's a big part of the equation.
The other example would be if there were a situation right now that demanded immediate action to enforce a no-fly zone somewhere on the planet. If there was an emergency and Canada was to send the equipment and capabilities we currently have, we might wind up in a situation where we're not providing the right level of cover. Civilians could be killed in the process. Canadian Armed Forces members could be killed in the process.
We're not as equipped as we would want to be if it were necessary to have this no-fly zone created.
