The new Prime Minister of Canada, Carney, has ordered a re-evaluation of the F-35 fighter jet contract signed with the USA, as Trump continues to issue threats involving tariffs and annexation against this northern neighbor, which signifies that the USA-Canada dispute has expanded into a new domain. According to an email from a spokesperson for the Minister of Defense, hours after taking office on Friday, Carney requested that Defense Minister Bill Blair work with the military and the Ministry of Defense to determine whether the current F-35 contract is Canada’s best investment and whether there are other options that could better meet Canada’s needs. This contract, worth 19 billion Canadian dollars (13.2 billion USD), involves 88 F-35 fighter jets and was finalized in 2023, at which time Lockheed Martin defeated Saab AB and Boeing.
