Joint Operations Symposium

Purpose: The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Joint Operations Symposium (JOS) brings together senior defence and national security leaders to examine specific operational challenges, and explore potential solutions to ensure the CAF remains fit for purpose, ready for pan-domain operations and able to successfully deter and defeat threats to Canada, North America and Canadian interests abroad

Surrounding it are images representing the five domains: cyber (an abstract graphic of the globe), space (a satellite in orbit), air (a CF-188 Hornet multi-role fighter aircraft), sea (the Royal Canadian Navy, Arctic Offshore Patrol Ship HMCS Harry DeWolf), and land (a Leopard 2A4M main battle tank).
