Carney government's national security strategy features focus on safeguarding economy
The plan will be followed by new foreign policy, defence and security measures over coming months, officials said.
- On Thursday, the Liberal government released 'The Plan for a Stronger Canada,' a new national security strategy designed to manage economic shocks while securing key industrial sectors and fostering innovation.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that Canada faces a "hinge moment in history," where contested borders and global threats render reliance on international rules insufficient for sovereign protection.
- Carney warned that deep global integration has become a vulnerability, emphasizing that Canadian energy, critical minerals, advanced manufacturing, and leading technologies "will be the bedrock of our relationships."
- The government plans to propose modernized national security legislation within the next year, updating a framework unchanged since the 2004 policy published under Paul Martin.
- Ottawa will roll out detailed policies on defense, public safety, economic security and intelligence over coming months, while planning a first ministers meeting next year to strengthen intergovernmental coordination.
