Certainly, sir.
Obviously under the Canada First defence strategy, NORAD is one of our main missions. It's a no-fail mission for us and we are but one of the sectors. So we join with CONR down in the continental United States NORAD region and ANR, the Alaskan NORAD region, to survey it, put out surveillance, and obviously ensure that no enemies or suspect aircraft fly within Canadian airspace. We provide sovereignty to Canadian airspace.
To do that, we in Canada have what's called CADS, the Canadian air defence sector, which uses certainly the north warning system plus also all of the systems that come from Nav Canada and Transport Canada in concert to give them an integrated air picture. That air picture is then shared with our friends in the other sectors and it comes together to give us a full overall North American picture.
With that, we're pretty well capped. We have a good understanding and situational awareness of the airspace throughout Canada and down in the United States, and we can respond to any abnormal situation with our fighter aircraft.
Does that answer your question, sir?
