On February 17, 2026, the Government of Canada launched the new Defence Industrial Strategy (DIS), focused on strengthening Canada’s defence sector through innovation, supply chain security, and support for Canadian industry.

A key element is the “Build-Partner-Buy” approach, prioritizing domestic capabilities, collaboration with allies, and strategic procurement. The strategy highlights sectors such as aerospace, manufacturing, space, digital systems, and autonomous technologies.
