Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada may contribute to the U.S. Golden Dome project to boost national security, as part of initiatives to ramp up defence partnerships.

U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed a $175 billion missile defence shield, dubbed the Golden Dome. He said he has selected a design for the project, which is aimed at protecting the country from threats by China and Russia.
