This is an example of why Florida banned dozens of textbooks. What went unexplained is that the new math textbook provider is a republican political candidate. The lesson that people should disagree respectfully? Republicans have an answer:

I am. I am also not blaming Canada alone, or in concert for that matter, for our indefensible defense budget. Rather, it seems to me that removing in some degree the hard right perception that only America can defend democracy might be a step toward arguing that we should start spending a lot less on things military.

Realistically Canada meeting the 2% target (which I can not find anywhere that we agreed to do, although it may be so) would require a 50% increase in the defense budget. Unlike in the US the defense industry does not have its fingers in the till of the nation. The only way to spend that kind of money quickly would be to just hand it over to American defense corporations to dispense to their shareholders. Very unlikely.
