Canada's $35B Arctic Military Boost
Prime Minister Mark Carney unveils a $35 billion plan to bolster Canadas military presence in the Far North, focusing on new bases, runway upgrades, and road projects. The majority of funds come from NORAD modernization reserves. The initiative includes four key spots, two big support hubs, and smaller nodes, aiming for quick year-round deployments. Major road extensions, like the Mackenzie Highway and a new link to Grays Bay port, are also planned, marking Canadas first overland route to deep water in the Arctic. The push signifies Canadas shift towards self-reliant defense in a changing Arctic.
