DND scrambles to figure out how to mobilize and equip a citizens’ army: documents

A series of internal documents shows the Defence Department is struggling to figure out how to equip a citizens’ army of up to 300,000 supplemental reservists, while also trying to rebuild its regular and primary reserve forces. A DND presentation obtained by CBC News shows strained supply chains, an absence of warehouses and the possibility of repurposing uniforms are a concern.
