Canada is embarking on a historic increase in defence spending, with the government committing to major investments in military procurement, including F-35 fighter jets and shipbuilding.
This shift aims to meet NATO targets and strengthen Canada's role on the global stage, while also promising to boost the domestic economy and create new opportunities for both established companies and startups.
