00:00.440 --> 00:02.780
recently I released our strategy for

00:02.780 --> 00:05.300
NORAD and Northern Command . Both the

00:05.310 --> 00:07.477
unclassified executive summary and the

00:07.477 --> 00:09.770
full classified strategy outlined the

00:09.770 --> 00:11.659
shared vision and unity of effort

00:11.659 --> 00:13.600
between our two commands . The

00:13.600 --> 00:15.489
strategic principles and enduring

00:15.489 --> 00:17.433
conditions defined in the strategy

00:17.433 --> 00:19.656
directly support both the United States

00:19.656 --> 00:21.850
National Defense Strategy and Canada's

00:21.850 --> 00:24.230
strong , secure and engaged defense

00:24.230 --> 00:26.580
policy . The security of our two

00:26.580 --> 00:29.200
nations is increasingly at risk as our

00:29.200 --> 00:31.089
global competitors increase their

00:31.089 --> 00:33.010
activity , their capabilities and

00:33.010 --> 00:35.550
capacity to threaten North America and

00:35.550 --> 00:37.500
our allies and partners , our

00:37.500 --> 00:39.611
competitors actions are global . They

00:39.611 --> 00:41.556
are not encumbered by our regional

00:41.556 --> 00:43.722
commanding control boundaries and they

00:43.722 --> 00:45.944
continue to rapidly advanced technology

00:45.944 --> 00:48.350
development in order to hold Canada and

00:48.350 --> 00:50.406
the United States at risk across all

00:50.406 --> 00:52.730
regions and in all domains , our

00:52.730 --> 00:54.841
competitors have analyzed our ability

00:54.841 --> 00:57.140
to operate overseas and have invested

00:57.140 --> 00:59.362
in capabilities to offset our strengths

00:59.362 --> 01:01.370
while exploiting our perceived

01:01.370 --> 01:03.560
vulnerabilities . Whether the threats

01:03.560 --> 01:06.690
come from Russia china , Iran north

01:06.690 --> 01:09.140
Korea , violent extremist organizations

01:09.150 --> 01:11.540
or transnational criminal organizations

01:11.550 --> 01:14.020
challenges persist . The global

01:14.020 --> 01:16.131
environment requires a culture change

01:16.131 --> 01:18.242
that factors homeland defense and the

01:18.242 --> 01:20.298
risk of strategic deterrence failure

01:20.298 --> 01:22.570
into every strategy plan , force

01:22.570 --> 01:25.200
management and force design , decision

01:25.340 --> 01:28.060
as well as all aspects of acquisitions

01:28.060 --> 01:30.000
and budget so we can deter in

01:30.000 --> 01:33.030
competition de escalating crisis and if

01:33.030 --> 01:34.808
required , defeating conflict ,

01:34.940 --> 01:37.560
resulting in the sustained , successful

01:37.560 --> 01:40.080
defence of Canada and the United States .

01:40.640 --> 01:42.807
To address the challenges we face in a

01:42.807 --> 01:45.360
renewed era of global competition , we

01:45.360 --> 01:47.760
must be ready for crisis and conflict

01:47.770 --> 01:49.881
while balancing the need to return to

01:49.881 --> 01:53.200
global all domain competition This time

01:53.210 --> 01:56.260
with two nuclear armed peer competitors .

01:57.040 --> 01:59.220
This approach requires four strategic

01:59.220 --> 02:01.053
principles to include all domain

02:01.053 --> 02:03.790
awareness , information dominance and

02:03.790 --> 02:06.070
decision superiority that are building

02:06.070 --> 02:08.250
blocks under an umbrella of global

02:08.250 --> 02:10.380
integration . To achieve our enduring

02:10.380 --> 02:12.491
conditions in support of our nation's

02:12.491 --> 02:15.120
interest . Our long term goals are

02:15.120 --> 02:17.231
expressed as enduring conditions that

02:17.231 --> 02:19.770
will guide our actions . These enduring

02:19.770 --> 02:21.720
conditions include defending our

02:21.720 --> 02:23.776
homelands from threats and adversary

02:23.776 --> 02:26.220
influence , outpacing our competitors

02:26.220 --> 02:28.220
to ensure our military advantage is

02:28.220 --> 02:29.920
expanding and not eroding ,

02:30.280 --> 02:32.700
strengthening our mission partnerships

02:32.700 --> 02:35.050
and finally providing civil authorities

02:35.050 --> 02:37.550
with rapid flexible response options .

02:38.040 --> 02:39.984
We must address all threats to our

02:39.984 --> 02:42.160
nation's project power forward and

02:42.160 --> 02:44.350
support our allies around the globe .

02:44.360 --> 02:46.760
We , as the department must accelerate

02:46.760 --> 02:49.190
our efforts to transform our culture to

02:49.190 --> 02:51.520
think globally , including our force ,

02:51.520 --> 02:53.730
design , force development and

02:53.730 --> 02:56.290
acquisition processes so we can be more

02:56.290 --> 02:58.512
effective in posturing are commands and

02:58.512 --> 03:00.734
shaping operational conditions that are

03:00.734 --> 03:03.068
successful in meeting future challenges .

03:03.640 --> 03:07.160
Mhm . Mhm . Mhm .
