Project Ploughshares – Project Ploug-shares, an ecumenical agency of the Canadian Council of Churches, is calling for more transparency regarding Canada's military exports.
In January, the agency released their findings following an audit of the most recent data published by the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade, which spans 2003-2005. The audit found no data regarding military exports to the United States, the largest recipient of Canadian arms. Under current free trade agreements, no export permits are required to ship military good to the U.S.
