70 Cents of Every Dollar Is Over: The Collapse of American Defense Dominance
For decades, Canada sent roughly 70 cents of every military procurement dollar to U.S. defense companies. Now it wants out.Prime Minister Mark Carney has announced plans to redirect much more defense spending toward Canadian companies, reducing a dependency built over generations. But breaking away from America is far harder than changing where the contracts go.
Canada relies on U.S.-made weapons, aircraft, missile systems, GPS infrastructure, and deeply integrated supply chains. Even many “Canadian” defense companies are owned by American firms. And Canada isn’t alone.
European countries are also steering more military spending toward domestic suppliers as confidence in U.S. security guarantees weakens.
American defense dominance won’t disappear overnight, but the system that supported it for decades is beginning to change.
