Prime Minister Mark Carney announced July 6 in Halifax that Canada will purchase the Type 212CD submarine from Germany’s ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) in what he says is the largest military procurement in Canadian history.
I was interviewed about the announcement by Caryn Ceolin for the podcast, The Big Story.
