Canada must defend borders with strong military forces

Ken Wappett argues against columnists who doubt military spending and border defense. He recalls historic threats and attacks near Canada, from WWII shells near a Vancouver Island village to U-boats in Halifax harbor, urging readiness in 2010 and warning against demilitarization. He cites Arctic interceptions of Russian aircraft as timely proof and stresses the need for continued patrols and training.
