Focus our study

According to Prof Owen, this survey will be asked to respondents of BC. Please also note that Canada is not a super-power or great-power like the other countries that you have mentioned, Canada is a middle-power, thus, it is only logical that Canada's military spending is a lot lesser than other countries like US, France, UK (Super-powers and Great-Powers, plus they are all permanent members of the UN with veto power). It would be unfair to compare Canada's military spending with the rest of the above-mentioned countries. Perhaps like what Jordan mentioned, it would be better to ask respondents if Canada's should increase its defense budget relative to the other priorities of Canadians like education, health care, welfare, etc or as a percentage of its overall GDP.
