DND has recently invested additional money in infrastructure recapitalization—such as the major upgrade of hangars and training facilities at the Air Force base at Trenton, Ont., pictured here in July 2018—but the defence property portfolio has endured periods of chronic underinvestment in infrastructure since the 1990s, which has impacted the maintenance and repair of infrastructure, and recapitalization efforts have fallen short of need, writes Ross Fetterly.
