Canada and Poland Sign General Security of Information Agreement

On January 16, 2025, Canada solidified its defence relationship with Poland by signing a General Security of Information Agreement (GSOIA). This agreement facilitates military cooperation and interoperability while protecting sensitive information. The deal is expected to unlock multi-million-dollar transactions within the defence, aerospace, and marine industries. It allows security-cleared suppliers in both countries to access classified information necessary for bidding on sensitive procurements, potentially creating job opportunities and enhancing national security capabilities.
