Procurement is not controlled by DND, if it were Canada would be the best equipped military in the world. It is controlled by Public Works and Government Services Canada which takes advice from the Department who has taken the advice from the Army, Navy and Air Force and then proceeds to louse it up. Except for weapons, we haven't gone wrong on weapons yet!
