RCAF looks into expanding airbase at Resolute Bay

The Royal Canadian Air Force has looked at expanding the airbase at Resolute Bay, Nunavut.

The plan is to construct a 3,000-metre paved runway, hangars, fuel depots to support fighter deployments there.

The base could serve as a logistics site for search-and-rescue operations as well.
