Summary
Canada is making one of the biggest military investments in its history, announcing plans to purchase a new fleet of German submarines. The government says the deal will improve safety and meet NATO commitments, but with a large price tag, it's raising questions about defence priorities. David Zimmerman, University of Victoria history professor with an interest in modern Canadian history, war and technology, joins Evan to break down what this agreement means.
