JUST ANNOUNCED: Over $3.2 million in federal defence investments for 3 Dartmouth—Cole Harbour companies.
In a rapidly changing and less secure world, Canada is rebuilding, rearming, and reinvesting to strengthen our sovereignty and keep Canadians safe.
These investments are part of Canada’s first Defence Industrial Strategy, focused on building more here in Canada, strengthening supply chains, and supporting the businesses that help equip and sustain our Canadian Armed Forces.
Today’s announcement supports projects at three local companies: GSTS, Survival Systems Limited, and MilAero.
Here’s what this investment will support:
- GSTS – expanding its facility and advancing AI-driven maritime and defence technologies.
- Survival Systems Limited – new manufacturing equipment to bring more production in-house and increase capacity for its world-leading training and simulation systems.
- MilAero – expanding production, strengthening supply chain management, and launching a new onsite training academy to prepare the next generation of skilled workers.
The funding includes nearly $2.5 million through the Regional Defence Investment Initiative and nearly $840,000 through the Regional Tariff Response Initiative.
From advanced maritime technologies to world-leading training systems, companies right here in Dartmouth—Cole Harbour are helping build the defence capabilities Canada and our Allies need in an increasingly uncertain world.
