Canada Just Joined Europe's €150B War Fund — And America Can't Touch It

Описание: Canada just made history. On February 15, 2026, Canada became the FIRST country outside the European Union to formally join SAFE — the Security Action for Europe — Europe's €150 billion defence financing program. The United States cannot access a single euro of it.

Canada's entry into SAFE — the Security Action for Europe — is the most significant shift in Canadian defence policy since NATO was founded in 1949. Defence Minister David McGuinty signed the agreement at the 62nd Munich Security Conference, making Canada the only non-European nation inside Europe's flagship €150 billion rearmament program. The deal follows the Canada-EU Security and Defence Partnership signed in June 2025 and comes as Canada commits $81.8 billion in new defence spending over five years. SAFE requires 65% European content on all funded projects, which structurally excludes Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and General Dynamics from contracts financed by the fund. Meanwhile, Canada's Canadian Patrol Submarine Project has shortlisted Germany's ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (Type 212CD) and South Korea's Hanwha Ocean (KSS-III) for up to 12 next-generation submarines worth an estimated $60–100 billion CAD over their full lifecycle. This video breaks down every layer of what just happened — and what comes next.
