National Delegation Calls For Greater Recognition Of Domestic Ownership
The Alliance of Canadian Defence Companies (ACDC) has brought a national delegation to Parliament Hill to advocate for procurement reforms that recognize Canadian ownership and control in defence procurement. The delegation, representing over 200 Canadian-owned and controlled defence and dual-use companies, is calling for a clearer pathway from innovation to operational deployment and greater certainty around future defence demand. According to ACDC, this could unlock additional hiring, investment, and production capacity in the Canadian defence sector, as reported by PR Newswire.
