Canadian security officers provide a unique protective service on board commercial aircraft registered in Canada. Officers are deployed following risk assessments performed by the RCMP on an ongoing basis. The Canada-France In-Flight Security Officer Treaty will allow for the reciprocal deployment of in-flight security officers between Canada and France and is the first treaty of its kind for both countries. This added layer of security will protect Canada’s aviation system from a vast array of threats.
