Liberals revive campaign pitch for centralized military procurement agency
In the face of annexation threats from the Trump administration and a Canadian public increasingly demanding the federal government buy less from the United States, the Liberals have resurrected a previous campaign pitch to create a standalone defence procurement agency.

US has now exited the #WTO (World Trade Org.) #GPA (General #Procurement Agreement) which Reagan & Thatcher effectively wrote as a central pillar of neoliberalism & which monetarised all values. #US has consistently opposed consideration of other values #sustainability, #ecology, #human values, EDI etc. which globally others have sought.
With US exiting into isolationism huge opportunity now arises for a global reset.
US corporate capital has been looting & pillaging for too long.
