Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Wayne Eyre says the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) is facing many new challenges and will need to move quickly to cope.
In a speech delivered to one of Ottawa’s “Mayor’s Breakfast” networking events, Eyre said the military will need to adapt swiftly to changes in technology, geopolitics and culture to be effective.
He didn’t mince words when speaking about the CAF’s need to modernize.
“Overall, the armed forces that we have today is not the armed forces we need for the future,” he said.
“We are on the cusp of so much change that has to come.”
