"As a leading member of NATO, Canada has always deployed our troops and equipment when and where they are needed most. In July 2016, the Prime Minister announced Canada would lead a robust multinational NATO battlegroup in Latvia as part of the Alliance’s enhanced Forward Presence in Eastern Europe—Canada’s largest sustained military presence in Europe in more than a decade— at a cost of $348.6 million over three years. In addition, Canada has renewed Operation UNIFIER, its support for Ukraine’s efforts to maintain sovereignty, security and stability, at a cost of $29 million per year for two years." (Building a strong middle class, March 22, 2017)
