Trump administration suspends key defence ties with Canada
Washington has suspended a long-standing bilateral defence board with Canada, citing Ottawa’s failure to meet military commitments and raising fresh questions about the direction of Canada's military
The United States has suspended a key Canada-U.S. defence advisory board in a public rebuke of Ottawa’s military record, signalling growing frustration with Canada’s chronic underinvestment in defence and repeated delays on modernization.
