The Canadian military has also recognized the strategic location of this province as demonstrated through its commitment to NORAD at Goose Bay, the DEW Line/Pine Tree Line radar sites located here, as well as the fact that the Department of National Defence established 5th Wing Goose Bay as a Canadian Forces Base when the United States Air Force no longer required Goose Bay as a location.
Les Forces canadiennes reconnaissent aussi la situation stratégique de la province comme le prouve leur engagement envers le NORAD, à Goose Bay, l'installation des radars des réseaux DEW et Pine Tree et le fait que le ministère de la Défense nationale a créé la 5 Escadre Goose Bay, qui est une base des Forces canadiennes, lorsque l'Air Force des États-Unis n'a plus eu besoin du site.
