Donald Trump's proposal for a space-based missile defense system called the 'Golden Dome' requires Canada to invest $61 billion. He suggested that joining the U.S. as the 51st state would eliminate costs. This plan has been compared to Reagan's 'Star Wars' missile defense strategy and is regarded as unrealistic. While the throne speech did not address this initiative, it emphasized Canada's military collaboration with both the UK and US, indicating its strategic defense priorities and commitment to reinvesting and enhancing its armed forces.
The new iteration of strategic missile defence in the form of the Golden Dome is every bit as ambitious (and just as unrealistic) as was Reagan's Star Wars.
The Government will protect Canada's sovereignty by rebuilding, rearming, and reinvesting in the Canadian Armed Forces.
