The Future of Canada's Defence Industry: 

Our North, Strong and Free
As the 2024-25 fiscal year kicked off in Canada, the federal government announced its first major defence policy update since 2017, "Our North, Strong and Free: A Renewed Vision for Canada's Defence", as a strategic response to the changing physical and geopolitical landscapes.


Canada and NATO
When Canada and its fellow NATO members convene for the alliance's 2024 summit, Canadian officials may be expected to address the country's level of military spending. "We recognize there's more to do and will be there to do it," said Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau.

Canada's Role in Global Security
The future is promising for Canada's Defence industry, with both procurement and spending on the rise. From Europe to the Arctic, Canada has security interests at home and around the world and a renewed commitment to protecting them.

$73B The Canadian federal government's new defence policy, "Our North, Strong and Free: A Renewed Vision for Canada's Defence", provides an investment of $8.1 billion (CAD) over the next five years and $73 billion (CAD) over the next 20 years to strengthen the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and align Canada's defence spending with critical new security priorities.
