NATO deterrence mission in Latvia drains the Canadian Army’s fleet of vehicles

The Canadian Army does not have enough vehicles to support both the brigade in Latvia and a similar-sized training exercise in Canada, a House of Commons committee was told on Thursday.

Maj.-Gen. Robert Ritchie, the director of the strategic joint staff (the military’s nerve centre), told the defence committee that over 400 vehicles of all types have been deployed for the NATO deterrence mission in the Baltic nation.

I bet they all got damaged at Pride parades.
