## Resource

Montreal is making a bold, high-stakes bid to host the new Defence, Security and Resilience Bank, proposing a $200 million, three-year timeline for a cutting-edge downtown facility — a move designed to outshine rivals like Toronto and Vancouver. Spearheaded by Sid Lee Architecture and backed by Quebec’s government, the plan hinges on public-private collaboration, showcasing Montreal’s finance, aerospace prowess, and transit-ready location. With the bank poised to fund global defense spending and create thousands of jobs, Montreal’s determined push could finally turn the page on past losses — including the Federal Infrastructure Bank — and cement its status as Canada’s premier defense finance hub.
