Behind every military operation is a complex communications network that gives commanders the information they need to make timely decisions and enables troops to act quickly and effectively. These systems must perform across vast distances, challenging terrain, and contested environments. Colonel Jay Estrela explains how the Signals team supports command and control by building, operating, and maintaining critical communications systems, while also driving innovation to advance the Canadian Army's digital future.

Notes de l’épisode
The Canadian Army is accelerating its modernization — introducing new weapons and technologies to meet emerging threats. But before anything is bought or fired, a critical step must be taken: ensuring it’s actually legal to use.
Major Michael Smith is a Canadian Armed Forces legal officer with the Directorate of International Operational Law. He explains how international humanitarian law shapes the weapons Canada develops, acquires, and uses. Find out why some weapons are banned, how others can be used legally or illegally depending on context, and how Canada works to keep warfare within the bounds of humanity — even as technology evolves.
