There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs.

The Prime Minister has started to make good on his promise to pivot. This is a clear political statement, especially considering one of the other bids used the same Bombardier airframe, but an American radar.

Time will tell how this trade-off plays out.

Today we honour our American allies, with whom we’ve served for generations, and we take a moment to remember those who never made it home.
We’ve all read about Ukraine’s impressive innovation ecosystem, but this article raises important points about how it might translate to the Pacific theatre and what might happen after the cessation of hostilities.

• The Pacific won’t be nearly as defined by FPVs

• The west cannot assume an innovation head start when China can already innovate faster and outproduce

• Capital structures will have to change post-conflict to support continued Ukrainian innovation, without “strip-mining” IP

“Once the Hivemind software is integrated into the LUCAS drones, the platforms are expected to be able to coordinate and maneuver together ‘independently [and] without human intervention.’... The result shortens the time from detection to action across the kill chain.”

Whether attritable or exquisite, platform-agnostic autonomy that reliably displaces the human operator in time and space is the ultimate capability.

“Unmanned vehicles are particularly suited to the sniper’s two main tasks of reconnaissance and targeted killing … If the mission fails, the loss is a craft worth thousands of dollars rather than a life.”

Not only can unmanned systems accomplish certain tasks better, but adversarial unmanned systems and persistent ISR makes the use of snipers that much more difficult.

I’m the end, this is likely more a question of challenging legacy assumptions and adopting doctrine. The sniper’s day is not done, but how they’re used is sure to change.

“The best thing is the establishment of one accountable minister for the delivery of defence materiel.”

The operationalization of Canada’s defence procurement is taking shape:
⚔️ One minister
⚔️ Standalone authority
⚔️ 14 grounds for sole-source contracting (10 new ones, including innovation and dual-use R&D)

“The capacity to exercise the right to self-defense is increasingly rented from private tech giants.”

Whether Starlink, Anthropic, or Palantir, our ability to sense and act in the battlespace are no longer the exclusive domain of States, presenting both opportunities and risks.

What is clear is that public/private partnership is the only way forward. But as the author rightly notes, States must maintain frameworks “compelling private sector cooperation when national security is at stake”, lest corporations become too powerful and/or fickle.

“From Ukraine to Iran, U.S. adversaries are already preparing for the next phase of warfare — one in which advantage will go to systems that move and react faster than propeller-driven systems ever can.”

Propeller systems are becoming logistics infrastructure, not decisive weapons platforms.

Speed and scale will win the day, and is leading Canada’s charge to create the domestic infrastructure necessary to be ready for the next fight.

If you take the world as it is, rather than how you wish it to be, it becomes clear that low-cost interceptors are no longer optional.

We are witnessing conflict spill into countries and urban centres that were previously believed to be insulated from such attacks. And while no defence, however layered, is perfect, the past few days have made it abundantly clear that legacy interceptor systems alone cannot meet the demands of a modern, ever-expanding battlespace.

Today, the constraint is not whether intercept technology exists. It is whether it can be produced affordably, at scale, and fast enough to matter.

Deterrence must be economically sustainable. If it costs dramatically more to intercept than to attack, the model breaks over time. The future of air and missile defence belongs to systems that close that cost gap and can be manufactured in meaningful volume.

That is the thesis behind North Vector Dynamics. They understand that the cost curve is the battlefield.

From the outset, NVD has focused on building low-cost, rapidly manufacturable interceptors designed for scale. They are quickly emerging as world leaders in this category, proving that affordability and performance are not mutually exclusive. Speed of iteration, speed of testing, and speed of production are core to their model.

Today, NVD is centered on counter-UAS systems and low-cost interceptors, where the cost-exchange problem is most visible and urgent. But NVD’s expertise runs deeper. They are Canada’s missile experts, with advanced capability in hypersonics and counter-hypersonics. That technical depth positions them not just for today’s drone threats, but for the next generation of missile challenges facing NATO and allied partners.

At ONE9, we recognized early that the cost-exchange ratio would define the next decade of defence. We did not wait for consensus. As founding investors, we backed a Canadian team building scalable intercept capability before it was headline news. With NVD’s leadership, this is a sector Canada can help define and lead.

Industrialize deterrence. 🇨🇦
True impact in Arctic defence will not come from behind a desk in Ottawa.

It will be built by those willing to travel north, to listen first, to partner locally, and to experience this sacred land for themselves.

Last week, the ONE9 team was on the ground in Iqaluit expanding Sapujjijiit — “Defender of the Arctic” — an Inuit-owned defence company headquartered in Nunavut and anchored off Apex-1, our secure C4ISR hub.

Sapujjijiit is not a southern company with a northern outpost. It is rooted here — built with Inuit leadership, guided by local knowledge, and designed to ensure Arctic security is shaped by those who call it home.

If Canada is serious about Arctic sovereignty, we must build differently. We’re proud to stand alongside the people that make this work possible.

Invest in Canada. Invest in the Arctic.
