The government introduced a budget for the 2026-2027 fiscal year, which provides 50.7 billion Canadian dollars for the modernization of the armed forces. For the first time since the end of the Cold War, Ottawa reached 2% of GDP, and aims to reach more than 4% of GDP by 2027-2028, when both direct defense spending and security-related programs are taken into account. Major projects include the purchase of an over-the-horizon radar system for the Arctic jointly with Australia and BAE Systems Australia; almost 2 billion Canadian dollars to purchase another 190 armored vehicles to support the production of General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada; preparing the possible purchase of an AWACS aircraft from Saab GlobalEye. The main focus is to bring back the army, develop infrastructure, strengthen the military industry and expand the military presence in the Arctic region. @WarPeace And You.
