In simple terms I look at force generation as having capabilities ready to support operations, whether that is contracting expertise, engineering expertise, or supply expertise. It's almost a functional checklist, and that reverts to people and capabilities inherent in that.
That is not a challenge, whether I provide that leadership and/or expertise to provide support to a deploying task force in support of Expeditionary Force Command or I provide that capability for security at the Olympics in support of Canada Command. Managing that readiness piece is a constant refresh, as far as what we do.
The force employment aspect really refers to me using that capability inherent to my own command and control. We talked about things such as third-location decompression, where we do intermediate staging terminals on a line of communication. Another important one is the casualty support team. It's a very small eight-person team that sits in Landstuhl Medical Centre. It is employed by CANOSCOM, generated by the CMP and the health services people. Those are examples of employment.
So do I have the challenge of force generation and force employment? The short answer is no, because my force employment focus is really on the strategic line of communication, and that is separate from the focal point of Expeditionary or Canada Command, which is a named operation usually in a very specific piece of ground that we would call a joint operating area.
