The first priority of the museum is to recognize the men and women who have served and contributed toward the development of Canada in peace as well as at war. These individuals may be represented by examples of the technologies they lived with.

The museum also looks at specific historical events where COMMUNICATIONS and ELECTRONICS personnel made significant contributions or were involved in major historical milestones. You’ll also see how our military technology has contributed to the development of Canada within and outside the military. About 20,000 people visit the Museum each year.
