[U.S. military industry companies may pay for the U.S.-Canada trade war] August 29th, the U.S. "Capitol Hill" website published an article on August 28th stating that in previous trade negotiations, the U.S. government hoped that Canada would complete the purchase of F-35 fighter jets and purchase U.S. radar aircraft to join President Trump's "Golden Dome" missile defense project and give the U.S. the right of first refusal to purchase key Canadian minerals. With Canada announcing countermeasures after the breakdown of negotiations, the greater damage to the United States may not be felt until the tariff issue ceases to dominate the headlines. The article pointed out that even before the breakdown of this negotiation, cracks had already appeared in the US-Canada defense relationship. In May this year, the Pentagon suspended the operation of the "Permanent Joint Defense Committee" of the U.S.-Canada joint defense, citing Canada's slow progress in defense spending and the shelving of the F-35 fighter jet procurement decision. The article stated that the real damage caused by the breakdown of this negotiation will be reflected in the next round of choices: when Canada decides where to actually invest its significantly increased defense budget, the procurement of fighter jets and sensors, and the selection of industrial partners may all change.
