00:00.210 --> 00:02.760
- Hello, my name is Left-handed
Colonel Keith Rudderhand,

00:02.760 --> 00:04.170
and I'm here in the Dominican Republic

00:04.170 --> 00:06.250
on Exercise Tradewinds.

00:06.250 --> 00:09.710
We're teaching OPP, or
Operational Planning Process,

00:09.710 --> 00:12.300
to our coalition partners
such that they can be able

00:12.300 --> 00:14.690
to analyze cause of complex problems

00:14.690 --> 00:16.660
and to be able to deploy on short notice

00:16.660 --> 00:20.680
to crisis' that may
occur within their home,

00:20.680 --> 00:22.530
within the Caribbean, and we're hoping

00:22.530 --> 00:24.190
that they'll be able to respond quickly

00:24.190 --> 00:26.191
and better as a result of our training.

00:26.191 --> 00:27.024
- The lowest end.

00:27.024 --> 00:28.570
- It's important for the
Canadians to be here,

00:28.570 --> 00:31.600
to be able to train the other nations,

00:31.600 --> 00:33.190
and also develop partnerships

00:33.190 --> 00:35.820
that we may rely upon in the future.

00:35.820 --> 00:39.160
Through our ability to
train then step back,

00:39.160 --> 00:41.970
I think we can much more enable

00:41.970 --> 00:44.599
the coalition partners to
perform at a higher level.

00:44.599 --> 00:47.682
(indistinct talking)
