Although the details of Canada's potential contribution, including financial commitment, have not been disclosed, Carney emphasized that the decision would be based on military considerations and evaluating the nation's role in such partnerships. President Trump had previously mentioned that Canada expressed interest in joining the initiative and that he expects Ottawa to contribute its "fair share." The Golden Dome program is designed to enhance North American security by creating a protective shield against missile threats. This development underscores the ongoing strategic cooperation between Canada and the U.S. in the realm of defense and national security.
