In the linked article this one references it says that target is in 10 years. But also Canada hasn't had a very good track record of hitting the NATO spending targets.

I also imagine Carney by probability is long gone then.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada and its NATO allies have agreed to substantially hike their defence-spending target to five per cent of annual GDP by 2035.

Will also point out the Liberals is suppose to table the next budget in Nov.4.

Carney will not survive the next election. The Cons were set to win until anti-Trump sentiment swayed us to Carney's "elbows up" talk.

But he put those elbows down real fast.
