While in Latvia, I saw Canadian Army soldiers on Op REASSURANCE demonstrate exceptional professionalism and commitment. Their role is key in integrating new capabilities within the Canadian-led NATO Multinational Brigade—Latvia. Thank you for your service!

June is National Indigenous History Month. I encourage you to explore the stories of Indigenous Peoples who have aided in the defence of this land since the earliest days of European exploration. This is a good starting point: veterans.gc.ca/en/remembranc… #NIHM26

MINERVA is driving innovation where it matters most—at the tactical edge. The true north precision challenge is advancing low-cost drone capabilities to enhance decision-making, improve targeting, and most importantly, increase soldier safety and survivability. 1/2
