Ibhizinisi liyakhula njengoba izingalo zeCanada ezinkulu kunazo zonke zifika e-Ottawa

Ibhizinisi lempi liza e-Ottawa ngoMeyi 27-28.

I-CANSEC, umbukiso omkhulu wezikhali eNyakatho Melika, uzohlanganisa abakhiqizi bezikhali, ongqongqoshe bekhabhinethi, izikhulu zikahulumeni, amasosha kanye nezithunywa ezivela. 55 amazwe.

The Ababukeli be-300 zihlanganisa izinkampani zamazwe ngamazwe ezikhiqiza imikhumbi yempi, izimoto zokulwa, izindiza zempi, amabhomu, izinhlamvu nemicibisholo eqondiswayo.

Ababonisi ikakhulukazi bahlanganisa iGeneral Dynamics Land Systems, umakhi wezimoto ezihlomile ezilula (ama-LAV) ezidayiselwa iSaudi Arabia. Inkampani yaseLondon, e-Ontario yakha okungaphezu kwalokho 700 LAVs eSaudi Arabia, ezinye zinezibhamu ezingu-105-millimeters, ezinye ezine-"turret yamadoda amabili" kanye nezibhamu ezingama-30-mm zokusekela "umlilo oqondile".

Ohulumeni abalandelanayo ngaphansi kweHarper's Conservatives kanye neTrudeau's Liberals bangene emlilweni ngokuvumela ukuthengiswa kwama-LAV eSaudi Arabia. Uhulumeni wengcindezelo waseSaudi unomkhuba wokuhlasela izakhamizi zawo ngezempi futhi ubambe iqhaza elibonakalayo empini yombango yaseYemen, ebone ubugebengu bezimpi, ukuxoshwa kwabantu abaningi kanye nokubulawa kwezinkulungwane zezakhamizi.

Izindleko ezikhuphukayo zezindiza zempi

Amazwe amathathu okumanje afuna inkontileka yendiza yezempi yaseCanada engu-$19 billion nawo azoba khona ukuze aklebe izindiza zawo zempi.

I-Boeing izobe ikhona ukuze ikhuthaze indiza yayo ye-F/A-18 Super Hornet Block III, i-Lockheed Martin i-F-35 Lightning II yayo, kanye ne-Saab indiza yayo yokulwa ye-Gripen-E.

Njengoba kuneziphakamiso zokuqala zokuthengwa kwendiza yokulwa ezoqala kule ntwasahlobo, kanye nesinqumo esizothathwa nguhulumeni wobumbano ekuqaleni kuka-2022, kuzobe kuphoqeleka ukuthi lezi zizwe zixhumane nongqongqoshe bekhabhinethi kanye nobuholi beCanadian Armed Forces obuzoba khona.

Ngonyaka odlule, i-Saab yayinemodeli ephelele yendiza yempi ye-Gripen e-CANSEC. Yini abazoyiphakamisa kulo nyaka?

Futhi nakuba amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-19 eyimali eningi, amabhanoyi ezempi angase abize izigidigidi ezengeziwe uma kucatshangelwa izindleko zonyaka zokulungisa, uphethiloli kanye nokuthuthukiswa okungenzeka ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Izindiza zamanje zaseCanada ze-CF-18s izindleko $4 billion ezothengwa ngo-1982, $2.6 billion ezothuthukiswa ngo-2010 futhi manje U-$3.8 billion ubekelwe isabelomali ukuze bandise isikhathi sabo sokuphila.

Ukuthengiswa kwezikhali kuyibhizinisi elikhulu

Sekukonke, ukuthengiswa kwezikhali kwezinkampani ezinkulu ezikhiqiza izikhali eziyi-100 nezinkonzo zezempi seziphelele. ngaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingama-398 zamarandi ngo-2017.

I-Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries (CADSI), ehlela umcimbi waminyaka yonke wezikhali we-CANSEC, okuvelele ukuthi izinkampani ezingu-900 eCanada zenza amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-10 emalini engenayo yonyaka, cishe amaphesenti angu-60 ayo evela ekuthengeni kwamanye amazwe.

Yize i-CADSI ithanda ukucula lezo zinombolo, kubalulekile futhi ukuqaphela ukuthi iCanada idayise izikhali zamaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-5.8 eminyakeni engu-25 edlule emazweni. ezihlukaniswa njengomashiqela yinhlangano yamalungelo abantu Inkululeko Yendlu.

Phakathi kwamazwe ezoba khona kwa-CANSEC kulo nyaka njengoba abangase bathenge izikhali kungu-Israel, Chile, Colombia, Turkey, United States, Mexico, Russia kanye neChina.

Imibukiso yezikhali akuyona nje eyokuphequlula. I-CANSEC iyaziqhenya ukuthi amaphesenti angu-72 abantu abangu-12,000 XNUMX abazohambela umbukiso wezikhali walo nyaka “anamandla okuthenga.”

Impi kanye nokuthula kwesimo sezulu

Uhulumeni waseCanada uhlose ukukhuphula imali yakhe yezempi yaminyaka yonke ukuze $ 32.7 billion kule minyaka eyishumi ezayo kanye nokuchitha $70 billion emikhunjini yempi emisha engu-15 phakathi nekota yekhulu elilandelayo. Cabanga ngokuzibophezela kokusebenzisa imali okufanayo kweDili Entsha Eluhlaza.

Ukwenyuka kwezindleko zezikhali akubonisi nje ukubeka phambili izindiza zempi phezu kwezitimela ezinesivinini esikhulu, ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni kwamasosha kusheshisa ukuwohloka kwesimo sezulu.

Iqoqo le-grassroots elizinze e-UK Sezishilo ezikaMbi ukuthi “Isivumelwano Esisha Somhlaba Wonke” kufanele “sihlanganise ukuphela kohwebo lwezikhali.” Bayanezela, “Kudalelwe izimpi ukuze kufezwe izimfuno zezinkampani - izivumelwano ezinkulu zezikhali zilethe uwoyela; kuyilapho amasosha amakhulu emhlabeni engasebenzisa kakhulu uphethiloli.”

Ucwaningo lweRoyal Geographic Society kusanda kuphawula ukuthi amasosha ase-US angomunye wabangcolisi abakhulu emlandweni, edla imiphongolo kawoyela eyi-269,230 ngosuku ngo-2017.

Futhi ubani othenga izikhali zaseCanada nezinhlelo zezingxenye? I-United States - izwe elingakaze lidlule iminyaka eyishumi selokhu yasungulwa ngaphandle kokulwa - ingumthengi omkhulu wezikhali nobuchwepheshe ezenziwe eCanada, ebalwa ngaphezu kwengxenye yempahla yezempi yaseCanada ethunyelwa ngaphandle.

Abathengisi bezikhali bamenywe eLansdowne Park

I-CANSEC ikhule iphuma ku-ARMX, umbukiso wezempi ohlelwe nguHulumeni waseCanada owawubanjelwe eLansdowne Park ngeminyaka yawo-1980.

Amaqembu okuthula ahlala ebhikisha futhi ehlela ngokumelene ne-ARMX. Imizamo yabo yafinyelela umvuthwandaba irali yabantu abangu-3,000 140 kanye nokuboshwa kwababhikishi abangu-XNUMX ngokuvimbela ukungena eLansdowne ngo-1989. Ngawo lowo nyaka, owayengusodolobha wangaleso sikhathi uMarion Dewar kanye nomkhandlu wedolobha bakhipha isinqumo esavimbela i-ARMX ezakhiweni zikamasipala, okuhlanganisa neLansdowne Park.

Ngo-2008, umkhandlu wedolobha lase-Ottawa ngaphansi kweMeya yangaleso sikhathi uLarry O'Brien wakhansela ukuvinjelwa kwemibukiso yezikhali ezakhiweni zikamasipala, ukucaphuna ubuchwepheshe bezomthetho mayelana nobunikazi beLansdowne Park kanye nesidingo sabantu baseCanada “sokwenza konke abangakwenza ukuze basekele amasosha ethu kanye namabhizinisi noma izinhlangano abathembele kuzo ukuze bavikeleke futhi bavikeleke.”

I-CANSEC manje yenzeka e-EY Centre, eseduze ne-Ottawa International Airport. Lokho kusho, kweyakhe Umlayezo wokwamukela we-CANSEC 2020, IMeya uJim Watson umeme labo ababehambele umbukiso wezikhali ukuthi bavakashele “esivuselelwe kabusha” iPaki iLansdowne.

AkukhoWar2020

Eminyakeni engaphezu kuka-30 edlule, amakhulu aboshelwa ukuvimba umbukiso wezikhali we-ARMX e-Lansdowne Park.

Amakhulu azobe ehlanganisa futhi kulo nyaka emzamweni wokukhansela i-CANSEC ngesikhathi se-NoWar2020: Ingqungquthela ye-Divest, Disarm, Demilitarize (May 26-31). Imininingwane iyatholakala ku- World Beyond War iwebhusayithi.

Lokhu kuzoba yithuba elibalulekile lokuhlangana ngokumelene ne-ajenda yokuzuza ngempi kanye nokubiza ukuguqulwa kwekusasa elinokuthula, eliluhlaza kanye nelinobulungiswa.

UBrent Patterson uyisishoshovu, umbhali futhi ungomunye wabahleli bengqungquthela nombhikisho we-#NoWar2020. Lesi sihloko sivele ekuqaleni I-Leveler.
