About this listen

Weeks after announcing a plan to reach NATO's two per cent of GDP defence spending target, Prime Minister Mark Carney committed Canada to reaching the alliance's new goal of five per cent by 2035 at the NATO summit in the Netherlands. Former vice-chief of the defence staff Guy Thibault breaks down what it would take to get there. Plus, Maine Gov. Janet Mills makes the case that more Canadians should visit her state, arguing their avoidance of the U.S. isn't hurting the president but 'their friends here in Maine.'
