Program:

Canadian Defence Industry Resilience (CDIR) Program

Program Purpose:

The purpose of the Canadian Defence Industry Resilience (CDIR) program is to support the defence of Canada and safety of Canadians, by providing targeted support to Canadian businesses to increase their production capacity for defence related goods, equipment, services and materials. The Program will support Canadian businesses, such as Centres of Excellence in the Munitions Supply Program (MSP), in expanding their defence production capacity for ammunition and explosives, including components and materials, and in support of the Canadian ammunition supply chain. The program responds to a lack of favourable financial capital available to the Canadian Defence Industry. Secondary benefits may include the creation of skilled jobs for Canadian workers for the long term and generate economic benefits for Canadian communities.
