Federal Opportunities in

Canada

5

open solicitations

Federal buying in Canada supports the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa and consulates across the country, along with shared border crossings and continental air defense under the joint North American Aerospace Defense Command.

Arctic radar and early-warning work, Great Lakes and border infrastructure, and parts delivered to U.S. military sites add steady contracting.

Open solicitations sourced directly from SAM.gov and DIBBS.
