To that end, Canada's new government is making generational investments in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) – reaching NATO's 2% defence spending target for the first time since the fall of the Berlin Wall, transforming defence procurement, and securing more than 20 defence and security partnerships in a single year.Building on this momentum, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, today announced a new strategic partnership with General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada (GDLS-Canada).
