  • Specialization and the Canadian Forces (2003)

The views expressed in the paper do not necessarily represent the views of the School or the Department of National Defence TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT 3 Introduction 4 Determinants of Force Structuring 7 Canadian Defence Policy 16 Specialization, Transformation and Canadian Defence 29 Conclusion 36 REFERENCES 38 ABOUT THE AUTHOR 40 2 ABSTRACT Canada is facing a force structuring dilemma. In spite of Ottawa’s desire to promote international peace and stability alongside the United States and the United Nations, Canada’s minimalist approaches to defence spending and capital expenditures are undermining the long-term viability of the Canadian Forces’ (CF) expeditionary and interoperable capabilities. Two solutions to this dilemma present themselves: increased defence spending or greater force structure specialization. Since Ottawa is unlikely to increase defence spending, specialization provides the only practical solution to the CF’s capabilities predicament. Though it would limit the number of tasks that the CF could perform overseas, specialization would maximize the output of current capital expenditures and preserve the CF’s interoperability with the US military in an age of defence transformation. This paper thus argues that the economics of Canadian defence necessitate a more specialized CF force structure.

  • GAUTHIER John Louis
    Gauthier, John Louis Private Algonquin Regiment Royal Canadian Infantry Corps C122588 John Louis Gauthier was born on Aug. 28, 1925 to French-Canadian parents, John Alfred Gauthier (1896-1983) and Clara Carriere (1900-1978) living in the Town of Renfrew, Ontario. The family also comprised James (1929-1941); Margaret (1932 died as an enfant); Blanche (1933-present) and Thomas (1937- present). Mr. Gauthier worked at the factory of the Renfrew Electric and Refrigeration Company. Jackie, as he was affectionately known, attended Roman Catholic elementary school and spent two years at Renfrew Collegiate Institute. After leaving high school, he went to work as a bench hand at the same factory as his father. In the summers, he was also a well-liked counsellor at the church youth camp in Lake Clear near Eganville, Ontario. Both his sister, Blanche, and brother, Thomas, recall Jackie’s comments when he decided to sign up for military at the age of 18 years old. “He told our mother that ‘Mom, if I don’t come back, you can walk down Main Street (in Renfrew) and hold your head high‘,” said Blanche. “In those days, men who didn’t volunteer to go overseas to war were called ‘zombies‘.” It was a common term of ridicule during the Second World War; Canadians were embroiled in debates about conscription or compulsory overseas military service. Many men had volunteered to go but others avoided enlistment. By mid-1943, the government was under pressure to force men to fight in Europe and the Far East. 1 Jackie Gauthier had enlisted on Oct.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Canadian Military History by an authorized editor of Scholars Commons @ Laurier. For more information, please contact [email protected]. : A Historiography of C Force FEATURE A Historiography of C Force TONY BANHAM Abstract: Following the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong in 1941, a small number of books covering the then Colony’s war experiences were published. Although swamped by larger and more significant battles, the volume of work has expanded in the years since and is no longer insignificant. This historiography documents that body of literature, examining trends and possible future directions for further study with particular respect to the coverage of C Force. h e f a t e o f the 1,975 men and two women of C Force, sent T to Hong Kong just before the Japanese invaded, has generated a surprising volume of literature. It was fate too that a Canadian, Major General Arthur Edward Grasett, was the outgoing commander of British troops in China— including the Hong Kong garrison— in mid-1941 (being replaced that August by Major General Christopher M altby of the Indian army), and fate that his determination that the garrison be reinforced would see a Briton, Brigadier John Kelburne Lawson, arrive from Canada in November 1941 as commander of this small force sent to bolster the colony’s defences.

  • The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-39
    THE POLICY OF NEGLECT: THE CANADIAN MILITIA IN THE INTERWAR YEARS, 1919-39 ___________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ___________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________ by Britton Wade MacDonald January, 2009 iii © Copyright 2008 by Britton W. MacDonald iv ABSTRACT The Policy of Neglect: The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-1939 Britton W. MacDonald Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin The Canadian Militia, since its beginning, has been underfunded and under-supported by the government, no matter which political party was in power. This trend continued throughout the interwar years of 1919 to 1939. During these years, the Militia’s members had to improvise a great deal of the time in their efforts to attain military effectiveness. This included much of their training, which they often funded with their own pay. They created their own training apparatuses, such as mock tanks, so that their preparations had a hint of realism. Officers designed interesting and unique exercises to challenge their personnel. All these actions helped create esprit de corps in the Militia, particularly the half composed of citizen soldiers, the Non- Permanent Active Militia. The regulars, the Permanent Active Militia (or Permanent Force), also relied on their own efforts to improve themselves as soldiers. They found intellectual nourishment in an excellent service journal, the Canadian Defence Quarterly, and British schools. The Militia learned to endure in these years because of all the trials its members faced. The interwar years are important for their impact on how the Canadian Army (as it was known after 1940) would fight the Second World War.

    Making Canada’s Role in NATO More Effective by JulianA Lindley POLICY-French PAPER July, 2016 2016 POLICY REVIEW SERIES Making Canada’s Role in NATO More Effective by Julian-Lindley French CGAI Fellow July, 2016 This essay is one in a series commissioned by Canadian Global Affairs Institute in the context of defence, security and assistance reviews by the Trudeau Government. The views expressed are those of the author and not CGAI. As a Canada Revenue Agency approved charitable organization, CGAI has no ‘views’ but rather acts as a platform and forum for intelligent discussion of Canadian global affairs policy. Prepared for the Canadian Global Affairs Institute 1600, 530 – 8th Avenue S.W., Calgary, AB T2P 3S8 www.cgai.ca ©2016 Canadian Global Affairs Institute ISBN: 978-1-927573-76-1 Making Canada’s Role in NATO More Effective CORE MESSAGES anada is the country that makes NATO an alliance. Without Canada’s membership NATO would be less a community and more a huddled mass of European states under C American protection. As the American world-burden becomes more onerous and the US relationship with NATO more tenuous, and as Europe itself teeters on the edge of deep insecurity and instability, the security and defence choices Canada will make matter not just to the people of Canada but to citizens across the Euro-Atlantic community. The Canada First Defence Strategy (CFDS), first released in 2008, envisions three major roles for the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF): sufficient capabilities to meet the security challenges facing Canadian citizens and Canadian territory; cooperation with the United States in pursuit of shared defence and civil objectives; and the fulfilment of Canada’s multilateral objectives through the United Nations and NATO.

  • What Is the Reserve Force? the Reserve Force Is a Large Branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF)
    2 Joining the Reserves What is the Reserve Force? The Reserve Force is a large branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). It is made up of people from the community who work in the CAF part time or full time. Members of the Reserve Force are called Reservists. Most Reservists also have other jobs. Alternatively, the Regular Force consists of members that work full time. These Did you know? members are also available at a moment’s notice to respond to any natural disasters or The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) was threat to national security. previously referred to as the Canadian Forces (CF). The name was changed in 2013 to give a truer sense of the purpose of our troops. Who joins the Reserve Force? People join the Reserves for many different reasons. Some want adventure, a chance to serve others, a challenge, or a second income. However, something all Reservists have in common is a wish to serve their country. A career in the Canadian Armed Forces is a call to duty. The soldiers, sailors, airmen, and airwomen who answer this call want to help others, and they are determined to defend and protect what they believe in. Military families “Strength Behind the Uniform.” 3 About this handbook Why do we have an Orientation Handbook? The Reserve Force is a large branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). In the Canadian Armed Forces, we say that military families are the Strength Behind the Uniform. Families support Reservists during relatively small commitments like weekend training and summer courses. Families also support Reservists during major events, for example, when the Reservists are sent to other parts of Canada or the world.
