Canada to meet NATO's defence spending target this fiscal year
Xinhua 10 Jun 2025, 00:15 GMT+10 OTTAWA, June 9 (Xinhua) -- Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Monday his government would increase spending on the country's defence and security and achieve NATO's defence spending target this fiscal year. Carney said in a news release that the defence spending for 2025-26 will be over nine billion Canadian dollars (6.6 billion U.S. dollars), or two percent of GDP, meeting the NATO defence commitment half a decade ahead of schedule. According to the news release, measures in the defence spending increase plan include better pay for Canadian Armed Forces; new aircraft, armed vehicles, and ammunition; bolstering Canada's defence industrial capacity, as well as expanding the reach of the Canadian Coast Guard and integrating it into the NATO defence capabilities. "Canada requires these capabilities to uphold and assert its sovereignty and ensure our defence never becomes dependent on others again. As we strengthen the Canadian Armed Forces, we will also build up Canadian industry, driving innovation and creating good careers," said Carney. Carney promised to further accelerate the investments in years to follow. According to NATO's annual report, Canada's defence spending was around 1.45 percent of GDP last year.

John Ivison: Carney's new defence plan takes seriously the darker world we're now living in
Article content Justin Trudeau went to Washington for last year's NATO summit and unveiled what he called a 'credible, verifiable path' to spending two per cent of Canada's GDP on defence … by 2032. Article content The lack of urgency and ambition was reflected in the then prime minister's belief that two per cent is a 'nominal target' that makes for easy headlines but doesn't make Canadians more safe. Article content Article content Article content His disdain for military spending was apparent in a Washington Post story from 2023, when he reportedly told the Americans that Canada would never hit two per cent. Article content Article content If credibility is a leader's currency, Trudeau left the U.S. capital bankrupt in the eyes of many of Canada's allies. Mike Johnson, the House speaker, said Canada was riding on America's coattails and called it 'shameful.' Article content Mark Carney, who is heading for this year's NATO summit in The Hague later this month, clearly did not want a repeat of the Washington debacle, especially as NATO secretary-general Mark Rutte is proposing a new target of 3.5 per cent of economic output on military spending and another 1.5 per cent on 'defence-related expenditure.' Article content On Monday, Carney announced that Canada will hit the two per cent target this fiscal year, five years ahead of the schedule he set during the general election. Article content Article content Canada will spend an additional $9.3 billion this year in a defence package that is primarily focused on improving operational readiness. Article content Article content 'Canadian leadership will be defined not just by the strength of our values but also by the value of our strength,' Carney said, using another JFK-style antimetabole ('Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.'). Article content Last year, Trudeau expressed frustration that his government got no credit for doubling defence spending over his decade in power. 'We have stepped up massively,' he said. Article content Carney acknowledged the increase in spending over the past 10 years, but also pointed out Canada's defence deficiencies: aging infrastructure and equipment; just one submarine being seaworthy at any given time; and, only half the marine fleet and land vehicles being operational, leaving the military more reliant on the U.S. than ever.
