Fiye da mako guda kenan tun bayan da gwamnatin tarayya ta gabatar da Kasafin kudi na 2021. Yayinda ake yawan yin tsokaci a kafafen yada labarai game da almubazzarancin da gwamnati ta yi na irin wadannan abubuwa kamar farfadowar annoba da kula da yara baki daya, ba a maida hankali sosai kan karin kudin soja.
Wannan na iya kasancewa ta ƙirar gwamnati. Kudin soja yana binne sosai a cikin kundin 739 Kasafin Kudi 2021 inda aka ba shi shafi biyar kawai.
Hakanan waɗannan shafuka guda biyar ba sa bayyana cikakken bayani game da ƙarin kashe kuɗin soja. Duk abin da muka koya shi ne cewa Kanada za ta kashe dala miliyan 252.2 a cikin shekaru biyar “kan zamanantar da NORAD” da dala miliyan 847.1 a cikin shekaru biyar don nuna “ƙaddamar da Kanada game da NATO.”

Kuma wannan shine kawai farashin sayan. Bisa lafazin A'a Jirgin Kawancen Jiragen Sama, farashin sake zagayowar wadannan jiragen zai zama dala biliyan 77.
Kasafin kudi na 2021 bai ambaci komai game da shirin gwamnati na sayo sabbin jiragen ruwan yaki 15 ba, sayen sojoji mafi girma a tarihin Kanada. Don neman kuɗin waɗannan jiragen ruwan, dole ne mutum ya je wani gidan yanar gizon gwamnati, "Procurement - Navy." A nan gwamnatin ta ce jiragen ruwan yakin za su ci dala biliyan 60.

Idan wani zai shiga matsala don tono irin wannan bayanin, menene zasu iya yi da shi? Bari muyi la’akari da shirin da gwamnati ta shirya na sayan sabbin jiragen yaki guda 88.
Tambaya ta farko ita ce me aka yi amfani da jiragen yaƙi na yanzu, CF-18s? A matsayin misali, zamu iya yin la’akari da kasancewar wadannan CF-18s a hare-haren bam na NATO a duk fadin Libya a cikin 2011. Kodayake dalilin da aka bayyana na yakin NATO shi ne kare fararen hular Libya, hare-haren sama suna da alhakin mutuwar fararen hula da yawa, tare da kiyasin lambar daga 60 (UN) zuwa 72 (Human Rights Watch) zuwa 403 (Airwars) zuwa 1,108 (Ofishin Kiwon Lafiya na Libya).

A cewar Stats Canada, Canadians miliyan 3.2, gami da ƙananan yara 560,000, suna rayuwa cikin talauci.
Me game da rufe gibin kayan more rayuwa akan Kasashen Farko? Kasafin kudi na 2021 yayi alkawarin dala biliyan 6 don magance wannan matsalar, "ciki harda tallafi ga tsaftataccen ruwan sha, gidaje, makarantu, da hanyoyi." Wataƙila za a kashe aƙalla dala biliyan 6 don kawar da duk shawarwarin ruwa-ruwa a kan Nationsasashen Farko.

Yaƙi, ya kamata a lura, ba kawai yana cinye biliyoyin daloli da za a iya kashewa a kan mahalli ba, har ila yau yana da ƙafafun ƙafafun ƙarancin ƙarfi da lalata sararin samaniya.
