[National Defence Act (NDA)] Section 275 states: "The Canadian Forces, any unit or other element thereof and any officer or non-commissioned member, with materiel, are liable to be called out for service in aid of the civil power in any case in which a riot or disturbance of the peace, beyond the powers of the civil authorities to suppress, prevent or deal with and requiring that service, occurs or is, in the opinion of an attorney general, considered as likely to occur." 6, record 6, English, - aid%20to%20the%20civil%20power

In Canada, there is a distinction made between "aid to the civil power" and "assistance to civil authorities. "The former expression refers to military aid provided to the provincial police forces to restore and maintain law and order. The latter encompasses all other forms of assistance the military gives to the civil community. Examples include search and rescue operations, counter-terrorism response, emergencies(natural and man-induced), fisheries and border protection, humanitarian assistance, counter-drug operations, arms smuggling, illegal immigrants, environmental surveillance and special events. 7, record 6, English, - aid%20to%20the%20civil%20power

In Canada, there is a distinction made between "aid to the civil power" and "assistance to civil authorities". The former term refers to military aid provided to the provincial police forces to restore and maintain law and order. The latter term encompasses all other forms of assistance the military gives to the civil community. Examples include search and rescue operations, counter-terrorism response, emergencies(natural and man-induced), fisheries and border protection, humanitarian assistance, counter-drug operations, arms smuggling, illegal immigrants, environmental surveillance and special events. 4, record 13, English, - assistance%20to%20civil%20authorities

In the United States, the scope of military assistance to civil authorities is more restricted than in other countries. The term "military assistance to civil authorities (MACA)" is used to include "military support to civil authorities (MSCA)" and "military assistance for civil disturbances (MACDIS)".

Au Canada, on fait la distinction entre «aide au pouvoir civil» et «aide aux autorités civiles». Le premier terme signifie l'aide militaire donnée aux autorités policières provinciales pour maintenir ou rétablir l'ordre public. Le deuxième terme fait référence à toute autre forme d'assistance militaire donnée à la communauté civile. Par exemple, les opérations de recherche et sauvetage, les interventions en cas d'actes terroristes, les urgences, l'aide humanitaire, la protection des pèches, de l'environnement et des frontières, la lutte contre le trafic des stupéfiants, les événements spéciaux, etc. 3, record 13, French, - aide%20aux%20autorit%C3%A9s%20civiles

The Canadian Forces Electronic Warfare Centre(CFEWC) exists to deliver comprehensive EW support to CF military operations. CFEWC is endeavouring to be the expert authority on technical EW matters within the Canadian Forces. In 1990, the Electronic Warfare Operational Support Centre(EWOSC) project was initiated with the intent of consolidating operational, intelligence and engineering support to the CF EW community. Under the initial phase of the EWOSC project(IEWOSC), a centralized CF EW database was created, the environmental integrated support stations were established, EW threat analysis was begun and a common logistics and administrative support cell was stood up. The Canadian Forces Electronic Warfare Centre(CFEWC) was established to encompass these capabilities within facilities constructed at the Communication Research Canada(CRC)-Shirley's Bay Campus. The initial construction was completed in 1994. CFEWC is mandated with the maintenance and development of the CF Electronic Warfare Database(CFEWDB). 1, record 14, English, - Canadian%20Forces%20Electronic%20Warfare%20Centre

Le Centre de guerre électronique des Forces canadiennes (CGEFC) a pour mission d'assurer un soutien global en matière de guerre électronique aux opérations militaires des FC. Le CGEFC s'efforce de s'affirmer comme autorité technique experte en matière de guerre électronique au sein des Forces canadiennes. En 1990, le projet du Centre de soutien opérationnel de guerre électronique (CSOGE) est lancé dans le but de regrouper le soutien opérationnel, technique et de renseignement assuré à la collectivité de guerre électronique (GE) des FC. Dans le cadre de la première phase du projet CSOGE, désignée le CSOGE intérimaire, une base de données centralisées de GE des FC a été constituée, des stations de soutien intégré pour les éléments ont été établies, l'analyse des menaces de GE a été entamée, et une cellule de soutien logistique et administratif commun a été mise sur pied. Le Centre de guerre électronique des Forces canadiennes (CGEFC) a été fondé pour regrouper toutes ces capacités sous un même toit, dans les installations construites au Centre de recherches sur les communications Canada (CRC), au campus de Shirley's Bay. Les travaux de construction s'achèvent en 1994. Le CGEFC a comme mandat la mise à jour et l'élaboration de la base de données de guerre électronique des FC (BDGEFC). 1, record 14, French, - Centre%20de%20guerre%20%C3%A9lectronique%20des%20Forces%20canadiennes

The naval and military establishments in Penetanguishene operated for 39 years, from 1817 to 1856. In the summer of 1951, the Chamber of Commerce of Penetanguishene decided to develop the site of the old establishment as an historical and recreation park. It restored the remaining buildings, the officer’s quarters, and opened a scenic road along the bay. It was called the Historic Naval and Military Establishments. Its name has been changed just recently to Discovery Harbour and it is a picturesque scene covered with old buildings and horse drawn carriages. 2, record 16, English, - Discovery%20Harbour
