Last year, the U.S. and Canada issued a joint statement on NORAD modernization and outlined four priority areas for investment: situational awareness, modernized command and control systems, capabilities to deter and defeat evolving aerospace threats to North America, and research and development.
I asked this question at a previous incarnation of the defence committee: In terms of capability, what are the most important investments that we could make today for our future, in light of what's going on today?
I'll start with Dr. Fergusson and then go to Dr. Huebert.
