Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Prime Minister left the door open to joining American ballistic missile defence, just one month after saying the Liberals would not change their position against such a system.
The system is dangerously unreliable, exorbitantly expensive, and it may well just spur a nuclear arms race. Just last week the Canadian deputy commander of NORAD warned clearly, “The extant U.S. policy is not to defend Canada.”
How has Trump convinced the Liberal government to keep this one on the table nonetheless?
