Not sure if anyone has posted this elsewhere, but apparently the government has tabled Bill C-31 for fist reading. Bill C-31 creates the new legislation for the new Defence Investment Agency and reworks the old Defence Production Act into the Defence and National Security Production and Procurement Act.
For a long Coles notes analysis, Noah has a lengthy take on this legislation here:

Beauty, thanks. I was waiting for Noah’s summary. From my own glance at C-31 it sounds like this will really unshackle defense and national security procurement.Not sure if anyone has posted this elsewhere, but apparently the government has tabled Bill C-31 for fist reading.

Further to the above, you can find Bill C-31 here.
Bill C -31 is a monstrous thing relating to numerous provisions implementing the last budget.
The new DIAA and reworked DNSPPA provisions are found at Division 16 Subdivision A and B respectively.

I would really like to see this unleashed. If there is one thing I want PMMC to do, this is probably it.
Did you read Noah’s article FJAG posted? Holy crap. ‘Unshackled’ and then some. Total decoupling from conventional GoC procurement.

I didn't, I don't follow him.
If you have ten or fifteen minutes to kill it’s worth a read.

It will be amusing to see if they can make this 'mandatory sharing of IP' thing work.
Anything paid for by the government? Sure, that is already a clause in government contracts.
Anything that you already own? That's theft...
"Basically, if the DIA believes that your business falls under their banner, they can legally mandate you to hand over proprietary information about your business, in such a broad case that justifiably they could ask for almost anything; and while Section 5 contains non-disclosure protections for that corporate data, it includes gaping exceptions allowing the Minister to share your proprietary data across other government departments, or even use it in civil suits."
For some companies, the ones with the really good stuff, the Canadian Defence sector might be too small and unpredictable to take that risk so you'll be stuck with the 'bottom third' of suppliers ...
Not the LAVs reference, but the link D&G just quoted again. There may be a substack popup but it's not behind a paywall.
