Yet, over two years ago, I began arguing 2% GDP on defence 1. would be a campaign issue, 2. it would be endorsed by major political parties, 3. foreign affairs would dominate the next Canadian electoral cycle.
All three points faced criticism from 'experts'.
The Liberal Party of Canada, NDP and Bloc Québécois are all campaigning on Canada spending 2% of GDP on defence.
Not a sentence I thought I'd write.
