Welcome aboard the GlobalEye family, Canada!
Sweden has a smaller population than London. Still, Sweden produces our own fighter jets, submarines, AWACs aircraft and launches satellites into space.
Like Saab and Bombardier, Sweden and Canada stand stronger together.
Friends, partners, allies.
Amis, partenaires, alliés.
Canada has decided to move forward with Saab GlobalEye as its new airborne capability for Airborne Early Warning and Control. I look forward to welcoming Canada into the GlobalEye family.
GlobalEye is a highly modern and capable system that now has earned the trust of a fourth country, in addition to Sweden, France and the UAE.
By operating Global Eye, Canada strengthens its ability to safeguard their sovereignty while contributing to NATO’s collective defence, including being a vital asset for surveillance and control of the Arctic region.
As the GlobalEye is based on the Canadian Bombardier Global 6500 platform, GlobalEye is already creating jobs in Canada, and working with the Canadian supply chain. This decision ties our two nations even closer together.
Canada has entered into negotiations to procure Saab’s Airborne Early Warning & Control Aircraft.
This new system will help the Canadian Armed Forces to detect and deter threats across the Arctic — and support more than 3000 Canadian jobs, from the skilled trades to engineering and tech.
Canada was the first country to ratify Sweden’s Accession Protocol to #NATO. In Helsingborg, Minister Anand met with her Sweden counterpart, Maria Stenergard, to discuss strengthening cooperation in the Arctic and our shared commitment to supporting #Ukraine.

@ABDanielleSmith Thank you @ABDanielleSmith for showcasing everything Alberta has to offer. The Canada-Sweden relationship keeps growing deeper and stronger. We are natural partners and friends in uncertain times.
I am shocked by the horrific mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, Canada. Would like to extend Sweden’s sincere condolences and heartfelt sympathies to the families and friends of the victims and to the people of Canada. Sweden stands with Canada in these tragic times.
Ett år efter den tragiska attacken på Campus Risbergska i Örebro minns vi offren, deras familjer och alla de vars liv förändrades för alltid. Våra tankar går till Örebroborna idag, när vi står tillsammans med Sverige och hedrar deras minne.
Un an après l'attentat tragique perpétré sur le campus Risbergska d'Örebro, nous rendons hommage aux victimes, à leurs familles et à tous ceux dont la vie a été bouleversée. Nos pensées accompagnent aujourd'hui les habitants d'Örebro, unis à la Suède pour honorer leur mémoire.
One year after the tragic attack at Campus Risbergskain Örebro, we remember the victims, their families, and all those whose lives were forever changed. Our thoughts are with the people of Örebro today, as we stand together with Sweden in honouring their memory.
As great powers abandon rules and values for their own interests, middle powers like Canada have a choice: compete with each other for favour or act together with impact.
@MarkJCarney@SwedishPM Ensemble, together, tillsammans, nous bâtissons une relation encore plus forte et plus profonde. Fiers et chanceux de contribuer à l'essor de ce partenariat exceptionnel.
@CanadianPM@NATO Together, ensemble, tillsammans, we are building an even stronger and deeper relationship. Proud and fortunate to be a part of growing this incredible partnership.
In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.
