    In the calculation of Canada’s military spending in terms
    of a percentage of national GDP, is Canada’s spending
    in support of Ukraine’s defence against Russia included?
    If not, it should be, and that would move Canada closer
    to the 2% target (or floor, as some suggest).

    If it was included, perhaps Canada could give even more
    to Ukraine than it has so far, and that might be true of
    some countries other than Canada as well.
