Australia's $400 Billion Dilemma - With Julie Macken
Manage episode 436232311 series 2494538
In this weeks episode of The Five Minute Advocate, Julie McCann delves into the controversial AUKUS deal, a $400 billion decision that could redefine Australia's role on the global stage. With a focus on the implications of nuclear-powered submarines, Julie explores how this agreement might shift Australia from a defensive to an offensive military stance, and the potential consequences for our nation's future.
Drawing parallels to Canada's failed submarine program in the 1980s, she questions whether this investment is truly in the best interest of the Australian people—or if the money would be better spent on pressing domestic needs like healthcare, infrastructure, and climate adaptation.
