Most of the investment — approximately $32 billion — is being drawn from a pool of money set aside almost four years ago by former prime minister Justin Trudeau's government to modernize NORAD, the binational North American air defence command shared with the United States.

So not necessarily new funds, but perhaps a more solid plan on what it will be spent on.
