These measures will also ensure that Canada remains competitive with our international trading partners, by meeting their expectations for maritime security.

7) Shared Outcome(s):

    The following are planned shared outcomes and activities in
    marine security.

Key areas include:

• Domain awareness - Increased surveillance and tracking of marine traffic;
