Collaborating to accelerate Canada’s national defence readiness and resilience
National defence
Defence organizations in Canada are at a crossroads of unprecedented change. Geopolitical tensions and conflicts are increasing. Security alliances are shifting. Threats are emerging on multiple fronts—not just physical ones. Cyber attacks are escalating in scope, reach, and consequences.
As global uncertainties mount and instabilities rise, Canada’s defence organizations—entrusted with safeguarding our sovereignty by protecting our people, our territory, our waters, our natural resources, and our strategic interests—face challenges that are more complex and interconnected than ever before. Their operational readiness relies on having the people, the equipment, the technology, and the data needed to respond in real time.
Success will depend on more than modernizing our existing defence infrastructure. It’ll take rethinking and reinventing the backbone of national defence and how defence organizations operate. And it’ll take agility, innovation, and increasing collaboration and partnerships with the Canadian private sector industrial base.
