For example, the agreement had not been in place the idea of the North American Air Defence (NORAD) would not be able to take place because the Americans and the Canadians would not be able to do it alone.
However, with the Ogdensburg agreement in place, the Permanent Joint Board on Defence could draft an agreement between the two country’s top military leaders that each country could easily agree to.
Therefore, the Ogdensburg agreement was a pragmatic approach to a Canadian crisis and not merely ‘selling out’ to the Americans.

In 1940, President Roosevelt and Prime Minister King signed the Ogdensburg agreement, which acknowledged the indivisible nature of North America's security and pledged mutual assistance in the event of hostilities.
The Ogdensburg agreement led to the creation of the Permanent Joint Board on Defence, which is our highest level bilateral defence forum for discussing matters of North American security.
Since its two chairmen report directly to the President of the United States and the Prime Minister, defence issues are discussed at the highest levels in both the military and diplomatic communities.

 ISUMA : Integrating Canada and the U.S. The Historical Framework   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
Under the April 1941 agreement, which was designed to rationalize "mobilizing the resources of this continent," the United States would supply Canada with components for munitions bound for Great Britain as part of British lend-lease aid and increase its purchasing in Canada to reduce the unfavourable Canadian balance of trade.
King, perhaps anticipating the rhetoric of the post-Cold War era, called the agreement the foundation of a "new world order." King informed the House of Commons that the Hyde Park agreement was a logical extension to the economic sphere of the integrated defence planning contained in the Ogdensburg Agreement.
When the two countries concluded the bilateral free trade agreement in 1989, controversial as that agreement was in Canadian domestic political circles, the two nations had already achieved basic free trade, which was taken a step further with the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1994.

The agreement did contain attached schedules that conditioned HII's participation in each project on a number of factors, including construction within the budget and meeting the expected energy output.
Despite the existence of this agreement, Dunlevy's activities for TPI were not limited to his work through HII.
The disparity between the estimated and actual output largely resulted from Stetson-Harza and Dunlevy improperly calculating Ogdensburg's head (the drop in height of water, from the reservoir down to the tailrace at the plant's powerhouse) and misapprehending the actual FERC bypass flow requirements for Forestport.

Historians may find an earlier date, but certainly in 1940 the Ogdensburg agreement was entered into by then Prime Minister Mackenzie King and President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
One of those evolutions was the development of the agreement which we arrived at in December of last year to set up the Canada-U.S. joint military planning group, which is now being set up in Norad in Colorado Springs under the direction of the deputy chief of Norad who indeed is a Canadian.
The government believes that if the discussions with the United States lead to an agreement that Norad represents the logical place in which to lodge ballistic missile defence, this would be the second element of the post-September 11 Canadian involvement in the joint defence of the continent.

 Canada and the United States: Ambivalent Allies. by Robert Craig Brown   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
Two more chapters cover the period from the interwar years to the Ogdensburg agreement of 1940, 'an informal executive agreement far more significant than any previous u.s.-Canada treaty, an agreement that was never debated in the u.s.
Together with the Hyde Park Agreement a year later, Canada had embarked on that road that eventually made it a 'satellite of the United States' (155).
Ambivalence is the continuing theme of Thompson and Randall's account of Canadian-American relations, an ambivalence that reached its high point in the years from 1960 to 1984 when the two countries disagreed more and more frequently, and sharply, over the Cold War, defence policy, trade, and foreign investment in Canada.

For decades the United States and Canada have been partners in the defence of North America, co-operating within the framework of the Ogdensburg Agreement, the North Atlantic Treaty, and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) to preserve our mutual security.
In light of the growing threat involving the proliferation of ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction, we should explore extending this partnership to include co-operation in missile defence, as an appropriate response to these new threats and as a useful complement to our non-proliferation efforts.
It is our intent to negotiate in the coming months a Missile Defence Framework Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the United States with the objective of including Canada as a participant in the current US missile defence program and expanding and enhancing information exchange.
