Really enjoyed this conversation with David Herle on The Herle Burly! Canadian Global Affairs Institute
🗣 🎙 New Episode: The Herle Burly Podcast Alright, you curious, you courageous Herle Burly-ites … welcome to the pod. On the heels of the NATO Summit in Washington, I want to do some real talk on Canada’s stated commitment and the Prime Minister’s comments at the Summit. In the context of an increasingly volatile world, 23 of 32 #NATO Allies are currently meeting the 2% of GDP military investment threshold. Canada is not one of them. But, by 2032, Trudeau says the government “hopes to reach the target”. By spending on new capabilities like submarines, which have yet to be costed or approved. So, what does this all mean, exactly? And how best should we be spending our 2%? With me to have that discussion is Dr. David Perry, President of the Canadian Global Affairs Institute, a non-partisan, independent think tank. He’s the author of multiple publications on defence budgeting, transformation and procurement, and a columnist for the Canadian Naval Review. His PhD in political science came from Carleton University and he’s an adjunct professor at the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary, as well as a research fellow of the Centre for the Study of Security and Development at Dalhousie University.

The impression I got was that our allies don’t think Canada will meet the mark for ammunition production. The most disappointing part of it is that at the root of it all we are struggling to do this for ourselves.

Even the Premiers understand that NATO defence spending isn't simply a "number" and that it should transcend political parties and levels of government. National security is economic security. National Security is foreign policy. National security is a means by which to contribute to a greater whole and means to continue to cement our place/position in the world that is rapidly changing. Comparing ourselves to our contributions 10 years ago isn't ok and doesn't make us more relevant to our allies. Promises without a plan and tangible commitment (eg. budget allocation) are just words.
Premiers push federal government to accelerate NATO defence spending

In the wake of last week's NATO Summit in Washington, D.C., the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, Business Council of Canada, and the Council of Canadian Innovators | Conseil canadien des innovateurs have weighed in on Canada's announcement that it will spend 2% of GDP on defence by 2032. The consensus is that businesses in the #defence and #cybersecurity sectors need much more clarity if we are to build a robust and resilient DIB and hit that target. Canada is flush with expertise in aerospace, critical minerals, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence – to name a few. All can be leveraged by #NATO allies to enhance collective security. Strategic procurement is a powerful tool available to the government to drive economic development, and we need more programs that tie innovation to experimentation to acquisition. A detailed plan for meeting the NATO commitment is critical to both trade relationships with NATO allies and to Canada’s global reputation as a security partner.

It was a big week in Washington, D.C., as NATO allies gathered and marked 75 years of mutual defence. CADSI was on the ground to listen and advocate on behalf of Canada's DIB. The summit also brought a series of announcements and developments with a direct impact on Canada's defence industry. We've outlined them in the latest edition of our monthly Industry Dispatch, available to all members via the myCADSI portal. If you're not already receiving it in your inbox, consider activating the newsletter on the right-hand side of the myCADSI home page under "your subscriptions." https://lnkd.in/g_inpdNe #NATOSummit #DefenceIndustry
