Canada Signs HistoricSecurity and Defense Pact with EU

The Spin

This historic partnership represents Canada's smart diversification away from over-reliance on the United States for defense needs, especially given Trump's unpredictable approach to NATO. By deepening ties with the EU, Canada gains access to advanced technology while strengthening ties with democratic allies committed to the international rules-based order.

Canada’s shift toward Europe risks undermining its longstanding relationship with the U.S., its closest ally. As tensions rise, Canada must prioritize rebuilding ties with Washington. The U.S. remains the world’s most powerful military force, and strengthening defense commitments to its North American neighbor is crucial for maintaining security and safeguarding shared interests in an increasingly unpredictable world.

This massive defense spending commitment to Europe appears more about advancing Carney's climate agenda and globalist priorities than genuine security needs. The focus on "building a better world" through EU partnerships suggests ideological alignment rather than practical defense considerations.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 20% chance that the United States will withdraw from any of its current mutual defence treaties by 2030, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
