    I believe the opportunity cost of increasing military production does not seem to be worth it, so it follows to me.

      Theres other considerations beyond state to state war with the US.

      I’m not Canadian and don’t actually have an opinion, but here’s other reasons they might increase their defense budget because of US destabilization. Decreased global stability due to loss of neighboring super power. Non state actors like terrorists or refugees leaving the US.

      I don’t think that Canada will be fighting the New Confederacy or the New England Union of Democratic Socialists in 2028, but there are still reasons that a diminished US would mean Canada should spend new money on defense.
