A total of 50 military export permits were utilized to sell goods to Israel in 2025.
Canada exported $14.6 million worth of military goods directly to Israel last year, according to a report published today by Global Affairs Canada.
A total of 50 military export permits were utilized to sell goods to Israel in 2025, the report says.
The military goods were shipped despite the Liberal government stating that it paused approvals of some new military export permits on January 8, 2024 and suspending dozens of existing permits for goods that it believed could be used in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Under the Export and Import Permits Act, the Minister of Foreign Affairs is legally obliged not to authorize military export permits if there is a substantial risk the goods could be used to commit or facilitate serious violations of international humanitarian or human rights law.
The report states that two new military export permits to Israel were issued in 2025.
The Maple revealed last year that these permits were for parts related to Israel’s Iron Dome missile system, which allows Israel to inflict massive civilian casualties at a scale that dwarfs its own losses. The two permits were valued at $37.2 million. (more...)
