Canada launches $6.6B defence plan to boost domestic production, jobs, and reduce U.S. reliance.
Canada has unveiled a $6.6-billion defence-industrial strategy to boost domestic production, aiming to award 70% of defence contracts to Canadian firms within a decade, create 125,000 jobs, and reduce reliance on U.S. suppliers.
The plan, delayed due to a mass shooting in British Columbia, prioritizes domestic firms in procurement, supports small and medium-sized businesses, and strengthens capabilities in aerospace, ammunition, digital systems, and sensors.
It seeks to increase defence exports by 50% and industry revenue by over 240%, while enhancing Arctic sovereignty and aligning with NATO spending goals amid shifting global security dynamics.
