@CanadianForces

I just delivered remarks at #CANSEC2023 — Canada’s largest global defence and security trade show. Together with our industry partners, we’re modernizing the @CanadianForces so that we can take on tomorrow’s challenges.

To that end, I made two important announcements:

1️⃣ First, I announced that we will establish a Cybersecurity Certification Program for Canada’s defence industry. Our industry is subject to frequent malicious cyber activities. This certification will protect critical supply chains, and increase confidence in Canadian suppliers.

@NationalDefence

2️⃣ Second, I announced the launch of the @NationalDefence Indigenous Reconciliation Program. Up to $1.5 million will be available annually to Indigenous peoples and organizations in support of engagement and consultation with DND and the @CanadianForces.

Today, we announced the next steps for the divestment of the former military housing site in Sainte-Foy, Québec City. This follows a multi-year engagement process with First Nations in the spirit of reconciliation, and other interested parties, in order to guide our decision.

The remaining 10.98 hectares of land will be divided into two parcels and offered for sale to the Huron-Wendat Nation and the Innu of Pekuakamiulnuatsh, Pessamit, and Essipit First Nations.

Approximately 80% will be offered for sale to the Huron-Wendat Nation, and approximately 20% for sale to the Innu of Pekuakamiulnuatsh, Pessamit, and Essipit First Nations.

As we manage Defence properties, we remain deeply committed to reconciliation with Indigenous peoples.

Aujourd’hui, nous avons annoncé les prochaines étapes concernant le dessaisissement de l’ancien site de logements militaires dans Sainte-Foy, à Québec. Cette annonce fait suite à plusieurs années de communications avec les Premières Nations et d’autres parties intéressées.

Nous avons annoncé que les 10,98 hectares restants de la propriété seront divisés en deux parcelles qui seront offertes en vente à la Nation huronne-wendat et aux Innus des Premières Nations des Pekuakamiulnuatsh, de Pessamit, et d’Essipit.

Le MDN offrira environ 80 % du terrain à la Nation huronne-wendat et 20 % aux Innus de Pessamit et d’Essipit et aux Pekuakamiulnuatsh.

Nous restons engagés à intégrer la réconciliation avec les peuples autochtones à notre gestion des propriétés de la Défense au Canada.

My message at #HFX2022 today: From the ashes of the Second World War emerged a rules-based international order which has underpinned global security and prosperity for nearly 80 years.

That order is based on a set of shared values meant to govern international relations.

Collectively, we face two paths.

Do we let the hard-fought gains of the past 80 years slip away, and return to a world where might makes right?

Or do democracies stand together to preserve the longest stretch of progress, cooperation, and freedom the world has ever known?

Canada, for its part, is firmly on the side of liberal democracy and international order. The number of Ukrainian flags flying in solidarity in communities across this country makes that abundantly clear.

Mon message au #HFX2022 : Des cendres de la Seconde Guerre mondiale a émergé un ordre international fondé sur des règles, qui a soutenu la sécurité et la prospérité depuis près de 80 ans.

Cet ordre est fondé sur des valeurs communes qui régissent les relations internationales.

Deux voies s'offrent à nous tous.

Allons-nous laisser filer les gains durement acquis au cours des 80 dernières années ?

Ou bien, les démocraties s’uniront-elles pour préserver la plus longue période de progrès, de coopération et de liberté que le monde ait jamais connue ?

Le Canada, pour sa part, est fermement du côté de la démocratie libérale et de l'ordre international. Le nombre de drapeaux ukrainiens flottant en signe de solidarité dans les communautés à travers notre pays le démontre clairement.

@NATO

Today, I announced our proposal for Halifax to host the North American Regional Office of @NATO's Defence Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic (DIANA). DIANA will bring together the Alliance’s best and brightest, academics, researchers and innovators.

With a thriving innovation ecosystem that sustains more than 300 entrepreneurial science and technology start-ups, and as home to several major universities and research centres, as well as Canada’s Atlantic naval fleet, Halifax has much to offer.

@NATO

In these turbulent times, the world needs more of Canada and its skilled workforce. Through DIANA, we will work with our allies to ensure that @NATO stays at the forefront of technology and innovation by joining forces with people and businesses across the Alliance.
