I can talk about the French armed forces, with whom I have spoken and worked. In bilateral and multilateral exercises, French soldiers from the Groupe militaire de haute montagne have worked with Canadian Rangers and have benefited from their advice. This is a very practical example.
With respect to training, Lieutenant Colonel Mainville, who was the commander of the 2nd Canadian Ranger Patrol Group until this year, told me that climate change is already having an impact on the periods during which the rangers can train. These periods are being shortened. Increasingly unpredictable weather conditions are disrupting these exercises. That factor must also be considered during annual ranger patrol exercises.
