In this Expert Series episode, we meet with Major General (Ret’d) Colin Keiver, Lieutenant General (Ret’d) Andre Deschamps, and General (Ret’d) Tom Lawson to discuss the potential cancellation or readjustment of the F-35 procurement deal, its impact on the Canadian defence sector, and its broader implications for the bilateral relationship.

With defence and security issues making headlines ahead of the upcoming federal election, our panel emphasized the need for significant investment in Canada’s defence infrastructure and personnel. Our conversation touched on the strategic importance of the F-35 for Canada's defence capabilities, the implications of defence technologies interdependency with the U.S., and the need for a cohesive defence strategy to ensure Canada's security and relevance in North American defence.
