Buyandsell.gc.ca now lists procurement opportunities from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA). The NSPA procures CAD 6 billion (EUR 4 billion) worth of goods and services annually on behalf of NATO nations. Because Canada is a member of NATO, Canadian companies are eligible to bid on many of these opportunities. Currently, Canadian businesses provide about 1% of the total value of goods and services procured by NATO through the NSPA.
