Home Defence, Security and Foreign Policy
The United States is Canada's most important ally and defence partner. Defence and security relations between the two countries have been characterized as longstanding, well entrenched and highly successful. This relationship reflects a unique friendship, underpinned by close economic interdependence and common values, that has evolved over the course of the last century. Canada's foreign policy priorities in the defence and security sphere are to maintain international peace and prevent violent conflict. We do this through a range of initiatives, including collective security and defence arrangements, our human security program and conflict prevention, human rights promotion and peacebuilding activities.
