Heads of navy, army and air force on plane that barely avoided mid-air collision

[SeaKingTacco]

SupersonicMax is correct- a TCAS resolution is hardly a "barely avoided collision".  True, someone screwed up and both NavCanada and Transport Canada are probably investigating.  The bigger story, had this gone completely wrong, would have been the 300 people killed on the 777.  As for losing the service heads all at once- we are probably the organization Canada that has the most redundancy and depth (for excellent reasons).  After a quick pause for funerals and promotions, the CF would have carried right on- because we are an organization that plans for, trains for and accepts that any one of us could become a casualty and that someone (probably even two ranks below you) could step in and passably do your job.
