An examination of Canadian military policy and government's ongoing support for Military companies

Program Title: Trudeau and the Canadian Military-Industrial Complex: A Conversation with Richard Sanders
Description: This week’s Global Research News Hour attempts to address how and why a militarism and military profiteering seems to be entrenched in Canadian foreign policy regardless of which political party is in power. Guest Richard Sanders is a long time anti-war activist and researcher, coordinator of the Ottawa-based Coalition Opposed to the Arms Trade, and Editor of Press For Conversion Magazine.
Sanders joins us for the hour to discuss the prospects of change under the newly elected Liberal government, a controversial arms sale to Saudi Arabia, the drift of the more progressive NDP and Green parties toward embracing militarism, and what’s behind the failures of the anti-war movement to meaningfully confront war and war-profiteering.
