Yeah I'll believe it when I see it, I have my reasons for pessimism.
Basically this is the lego song interview "Everything is awesome"
followed by "We're going to add some guys"
Plus there's no structural reform of the system, its basically stay the course with what I see is a hyper confusing multiple ministry mess
Quote:
Critics of the system have repeatedly asked the government to create one single department responsible for all military procurement. Finn said that isn't on the radar right now.
"Are we going to fundamentally change the authorities of ministers or are we going to smash it all together? Not at this point," he said.

This is pretty empty for me

Finn noted many other projects previously tied up in the system are moving ahead or being delivered, such as new armoured vehicles for the army, Arctic patrol ships for the navy, and search-and-rescue planes.

These things were pretty much in production with the Conservatives.
I still have a bit of healthy skepticism to the Liberal plan because they're really not going to do much spending on major projects until after the next election, so they can basically win the election and poop can this whole thing.
I'd say the same thing about any government since successive governments have mishandled the defense file worse then most other ministries.
