March 5, 2026 | Vincent Rigby spoke at the Conference of Defence Associations Institute’s annual conference about Canada’s evolving role in the Indo-Pacific. Moderating a panel on regional strategy, Rigby noted that Canada has struggled to define a consistent approach since releasing its Indo-Pacific strategy in 2022. He suggests the strategy may need to be refreshed and more clearly linked to Canada’s Arctic and European security priorities, particularly as geopolitical tensions evolve.
