Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said he would support the Carney government in its $2.6 billion plan to boost Canada’s defence spending to hit NATO’s two per cent of gross domestic product. He also reiterated his calls for the Liberals to present a budget before the fall.
“We support getting back to the two per cent target as soon as possible. We will support additional money for our military,” Poilievre told reporters in Ottawa on Monday.
