Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC), part of the Department of National Defence, comprises seven research centres and forty-seven research and development (R&D) capabilities across Canada. Of these centres, the Suffield Research Centre, located in Alberta, provides training and expertise on radiological and nuclear technology through the Radiological and Nuclear Technologies Group (RNTG). Housed within the Canadian Forces Base, which includes a vast experimental proving ground facility, the RNTG is tasked with providing radiological training to various members and clients including Canadian Armed Forces Members, NATO allies, foreign nationals as arranged by Global Affairs Canada, and First Responders in the safe handling and remediation of radiological and nuclear material. The expansive inventory of various sources (in terms of activity (up to several TBq of material) and forms of ionising radiation), the Department of National Defence specific regulatory body, and the procurement and use of more novel isotopes, give it the unique capability to deliver specialised radiological training within the NATO partner nations. The RNTG’s Radiological and Nuclear (RN) Defence program goes beyond field radiation training. Existing as a group of subject matter experts, the RNTG also conducts research and can provide expertise, advice and reach-back support to both Canadians and non-Canadian partners alike.
