Canada’s decision to procure up to 12 new submarines from our German and Norwegian Allies reflects the strong and growing partnership between our nations.   Together, Chancellor Merz, Prime Minister Støre and I are focused on bringing our nations ever closer to create greater security and prosperity on both sides of the Atlantic. – at Ankara, Türkiye

Canada has entered into negotiations to procure Saab’s Airborne Early Warning & Control Aircraft. This new system will help the Canadian Armed Forces to detect and deter threats across the Arctic — and support more than 3000 Canadian jobs, from the skilled trades to engineering and tech.

Canada is building its strength and reinvesting in the @CanadianForces — to protect Canadians, secure our sovereignty, and stand with our Allies.   Yesterday, we announced major new investments to modernise CAF infrastructure, create new training centres, and build new aviation facilities across Atlantic Canada.

After more than a decade of plodding progress-Canada finally reaches the 2% GDP defence spending target set by NATO in 2014. The achievement comes as members of the alliance aim for a new 5% target by 2035.

So much of Canada’s military capability, and nearly 20% of our economy, relies on satellites. We’re making an historic investment toward a Canadian-owned launch pad to send satellites into orbit — strengthening the @CanadianForces, our sovereignty, and our economic security.

We're rebuilding, rearming, and reinvesting in the Canadian Armed Forces. From making sure they have the equipment they need, to giving service members the biggest pay raise in a generation — we’re reinforcing our capacity to protect our country, our allies, and our values.

The work of defending Canada is the work of building Canada. The Defence Industrial Strategy will create good jobs, attract new investment, and make sure our women and men in uniform have everything they need to defend our country.

Canada’s new Defence Industrial Strategy has a simple framework: Build. Partner. Buy.   We will build defence equipment in Canada and prioritise Canadian companies. Where we can’t build, we will partner with allies. Only after exhausting these options, will we buy from abroad — ensuring that the maximum benefits are returned to Canada throughout the value chain.

Canada is now the first non-European country to be granted a membership in SAFE. This is a gamechanger program that means Canada can rearm our Canadian Armed Forces members more effectively and scale up our defence industries with more contracts overseas.

Welcome back to Canada, @ZelenskyyUA. Today in Halifax, we committed critical new support to help Ukraine end Russia’s war of aggression, and to recover and rebuild. When peace comes — and it will come — Canada will be there for the Ukrainian people. Slava Ukraini. 🇨🇦🇺🇦
