[Prime Minister of Canada @CanadianPM]

The members of our Canadian Armed Forces stand on guard to defend our nation’s sovereignty. As many spend the holiday season away from home, we extend our deepest gratitude for their continued courage, service, and sacrifice.

To kick off #WomensHistoryMonth, we want to start by honouring the women who paved the way for the future with their strength and determination.

Their contributions to our country, past and present, are a lasting source of inspiration for future generations.

[Canadian Joint Operations Command @CJOC_COIC]

Canadian soldiers proudly serve in Latvia with our #NATO allies as part of #OpREASSURANCE, reinforcing peace and security through unity, professionalism, and trust.

@CHelwer_Fencer Thank you!

[Canadian Army @CanadianArmy]

We’ve entered the post-Holiday season – where seasonal blues and cold weather seep in. For many, this puts a strain on mental health.

This January, check in with friends and lend an ear to your teammates. Your mental health is just as important as your physical health.

Tech Tuesday - Transformation! 🔧

Ever wondered how our military vehicles stay mission-ready? It’s all thanks to our skilled Vehicle Technicians!

Could not be prouder to work with LCol Melanie Lake, who will receive a Meritorious Service Medal for commanding Joint Task Force–Ukraine.

Going to Kyiv with Mel is like being with a celebrity! So many people describe the ongoing impacts of 🇨🇦's mission & of Mel's leadership. ❤️

@RCRBuck I left mine up after last Christmas, thinking that I was saving myself some time. But squrrels ate through all the cables this summer so I’m back to square one! 🐿️🎄

[Melanie Lake @MelanieLake]

Chimo!

@RCRBuck 6. Don’t write to be understood; write so that you cannot be misunderstood.

@RCRBuck 4. An 80% plan delivered right now is better than the 100% plan too late. Seriously; your subordinate elements need info now so they can plan/prepare.

5. There are real people on the receiving end of your directive. It must be easily understandable and it must be executable.

Women in the army – they give it their all.

They’re strong, capable, resilient and committed.

These are the women you want on your side. #WomensHistoryMonth
