HMCS Shawinigan requires the muscle power of Leading Seaman Paul Poirier to clear the ice-covered deck as the ship transits through the chilly Lancaster Sound, Nunavut, during Operation Limpid. Operation Limpid is the routine domestic surveillance of Canadian air, maritime, land, space, and cyber domains as well as presence in Canada’s aerial, maritime and land approaches. These activities seek to detect, deter, prevent, pre-empt and defeat threats aimed at Canada or Canadian interests. The operation conducts surveillance of key areas of jurisdiction with efforts concentrated on those areas where Canada’s interests are most likely to be challenged.
