Canada's defense budget is predicted to see a period of steady and sustained growth, rising by a total of $2.4 billion from 2024 to 2028, equating to a total CAGR of 2.7% during 2024-28. This increase is generally consistent with the growth seen in the historic 2019-23 period, which saw a growth of $3.3 billion, although a slightly higher CAGR of 4.5%. As a Western nation and member of NATO, the primary drivers of Canada's defense spending are similar to those of its close allies: growing concern over the resurgence of Russia on the international stage and its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine in particular, an ongoing drive to modernize its armed forces with platform upgrades and procurements, and continued support of current operational deployments around the world.

Key Highlights

  • Canada's defense expenditure was $17.2 billion in 2019. It grew moderately to reach $20.6 billion in 2023, reflecting a CAGR of 4.5% during 2019-23.
  • Canada's acquisition spending is being driven up primarily by a select few large programs to replace the backbones of the Air Force and Navy: A fleet of up to 88 F-35A stealth jets, a force of 15 new frigates based on BAE's Type 26 design, and a range of naval support vessels such as patrol ships, replenishment ships and icebreaking patrol boats. As a proportion of the overall budget, acquisition spending has increased from 17.8% in 2019 to 21.3% in 2023 and is expected to decrease slightly to 20.6% in 2028.
