The Canadian Forces Snowbirds continued their cross-country journey Saturday with stops in Alberta and B.C. Dubbed Operation Inspiration, the jets' mission is to salute Canadians doing their part to fight the spread of COVID-19. We want Canadians to know we're in this with you," said Lieutenant-Colonel Mike French, commanding officer of the Canadian Forces Snowbirds. After saluting Canadians doing their part in B.C., the squadron plans to move onto Calgary before heading to their home base in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. The Snowbirds began their current mission with flyovers in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick during the first weekend of May.
