They won't make a TB submission before they know what the government intention is. There's no point standing up a project and spending thousands of man hours developing specs, project and procurement plans if the government won't support it. TB submissions aren't normally done without the concurrence of three ministers for major capital projects:
1) Defence Minister for requirements and project plans
2) Procurement Minister for proposed procurement plan and contract strategy
3) Industry Minister for the industrial and regional benefits strategy.
Generally a project office isn't stood up unless MND supports it, so #1 will always sign. #2 always sign unless we propose some crazy contractual agreement. #3 is usually the problem. And if no resolution can be had then an appeal can be made to override #3. And this isn't a current government problem. I experienced the above during the Harper years. This is just how the process works.

So future Canadian submarines are just a long ways off. A new Government that made that commitment would chip away at 2% pretty quick.
