New report calls for a Defence Industrial Base Strategy that drives prosperity

There’s no playbook for handling this

In a profile of Procurement Minister Anita Anand in The Globe and Mail, Goldy Hyder commended Ms. Anand on the progress she has made. He also shared his perspective on why going forward we need to foster a stronger relationship between industry and government.

“I’m respectful of someone in their first time in public life being thrust into a pivotal role. It’s not like there’s a playbook for handling this, in a department that the public service itself would probably call old and clunky. To make that department central in handling this – she has my respect.”
