Canada commits to increase Canada's presence in Latvia to about 2200 by 2026. I have no idea how they're going to do this.

Crrently Canada has a total of 3 badly under strength brigades. So they're basically going to have a understrength brigade in Latvia. So to support that, there will have to be a brigade in Canada doing workups to deply, and a brigade that's on normal activity including training, leave, rearming. So is he saying that the majority of Canada's combat troops are going to be doing work for Latvia?

Part of the Brigade is the armored component which includes tanks. suppossedly Canada would commit 14 tanks to Latvia. But I doubt that we have that many tanks that are able to be deployed.
