The Liberals seem to treat the defence industrial strategy as a bureaucratic exercise, like everything else. There are new strategies, new agencies, new frameworks and new acronyms. We've seen the Liberals establish a new bureaucracy, the so-called Defence Investment Agency, and appoint a Liberal insider CEO who stands to make up to $900,000 a year. He happens to be an investment banker colleague of the Liberal Prime Minister from when they were at Goldman Sachs.
Is one of Canada's core problems that we need more bureaucracy, rather than actually building factories, supply chains and platforms and hiring Canadians?
