A policy! On paper, no less!

OK, maybe not a policy paper per se, but at least some written plans (pdf) to go along with the much-panned Canada First Defence Strategy announcement.

I have yet to read it, but Paul Wells says what jumps to my mind as well:

One thing is for sure. It would not have killed this government to release its policy on the day it announced it, nor to hold a technical briefing after the policy details had been released, instead of before. There remain a lot of questions, and one gets the sneaking suspicion that’s precisely how the prime minister wants it.

I'm sure I'll have more to say shortly.
