with the norad strategic review, canada and the u.s.are looking at emerging defense and security challenges and how our countries can prepare to meet that. north america is not a simple task. together, we cover a lot of land. that's why we try to be a contributor to the defense and a good example of that is radar too. this provides the canadian armed forces with all day and all night surveillance in areas where other equipment is challenged and simply unable to operate in harsh and unpredictable arctic regions for example. as the replacement of the radar sat in constellation mission will enhance worker and surveillance capabilities by allowing real-time tracking of the ships approaching the mutual shorelines. canada is the only partner other than the u.s. was able to contribute to the satellite surveillance such an important way. this is the capability that is good to be the key to the north american security and to the joint missions abroad. that is what leveraging each other's strengths is all about. let's talk about canada and the op
