  • In the far reaches of Resolute, Canada, military personnel from the U.S. and Canada have come together for a joint cold weather exercise called Guerrier Nordique. This exercise is designed to test tactical skills and endurance as they work together to operate in extreme winter conditions in the high Arctic.

    Something tells me we're (CANADA/USA) going to need this training soon.

    That big .50 BMG may someday soon be replaced by a SIG .338 Norma magnum heavy machine gun. Same max range but FAR lighter and still capable of anti-materiel use.
    BTW-> The Canadian Armed Forces winter sleep system is unique and worth a look.

      Not a chance. The .50 Browning isn't going anywhere until the next gen hurdles of firearms tech (ignition) are achieved.

      There is only a few Is true cold weather armies in the world and Norway and Canada are one of them.
      Surprisingly enough Russia and United States is not.
      That means any unit in the Canadian forces can operate in −35 nonsense.

      definitely gets colder than -35 here. The date was January 23, 1935. The location: Iroquois Falls, located 55 km northeast of Timmins and 40 km south of Cochrane, ON. The value was a minus 58.1°C (minus 73°F)

    BTW, No doubt the Canadian Armed forces knows a lot about cold weather military training. BUT the Canadian "army" is so tiny =, even in relation to Canada's small population, that it would be laughable if it were not so sad.
    CANADA NEEDS TO BUILD A MILITARY FROM AT LEAST 2% OF ITS GDP, NOTTHECURRENT 1.25%. As a NATO nationCanada is a SLACKER of the first order.

    LOL , US reserve Guard Units are better equipped than full time regular Canadian units in Canada’s Arctic.
    If Canadians are serious they need to up their game , get survivable Arctic equipment for their regular force instead of sponging off the US National Guard. US has Arctic training out Wainwright , Alaska and Mountain Division.

      @@Maryland_Kulakwell considering the temperatures there aren’t many CBRN threats. A beard in the far north is actually a good thing. The equipment the Canadians are issued is decent for operating in the far north compared to what was issued in the 90’s early 2000’s. Oh and there isn’t a CBRN mask out there that is effective at -40…..
