Canada bets on ‘Build at Home’ defence strategy to reclaim sovereignty — and revive readiness
Canada’s new defence industrial strategy sets ambitious targets to rebuild military readiness and reduce reliance on foreign suppliers, aiming to award 70 per cent of defence contracts to Canadian firms over the next decade. Backed by $6.6 billion, the plan seeks to boost equipment serviceability rates, increase defence exports by 50 per cent and create 125,000 jobs by 2035.
