Ottawa - Canadian Army soldiers mostly from 2nd Canadian Division along with British Army troops are participating in Exercise UNIFIED RESOLVE 2015 (Ex UR 15) in Valcartier, Quebec, from February 10 to 27. This exercise is a key step in the Canadian Army’s training cycle and Road to High Readiness.
The Road to High Readiness is the training regime that is conducted by Canadian Army elements to prepare them for national or expeditionary deployments, as mandated by the Government of Canada. The end-state of the training is the production of competent, confident, and integrated elements that are mobile, adaptive, and prepared to conduct Full Spectrum Operations.
Ex UR 15 is taking place in a simulated environment, making it possible to virtually represent unit and troop movements and manoeuvres without the participants actually deploying in a training area.
