North American Defense and Security after 9/11

Abstract

Canada and the United States fought as partners in World Wars I and II, the Korean War, Operation Desert Storm, the Balkans, and most recently in Afghanistan. Our mutual participation in these conflicts and membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) focused on joint and combined operations in overseas theaters. We have been allies in diplomacy and in the defense of North America, planning and acting within the intent of the Ogdensburg Announcement (1940), the North Atlantic Treaty (1948), and the North American Aerospace Defense (NORAD) Agreement (1958). Our nations have a long history of cooperation that has resulted in the prosperity, safety, and freedom of our peoples.
