Canada has now executed more than 100 airstrikes in support of the anti-ISIS campaign in Iraq and Syria.
Among the 100 strikes are two successful attacks this weekend -- one near Bayji and another near Mosul -- according to the Department of National Defence.
Another milestone -- 1,000 sorties -- was reached on Friday.
So far there have been 661 sorties by CF-188 Hornet fighters, 185 reconnaissance missions by CP-140 Aurora aircraft and 170 sorties by CC-150T Polaris aerial re-fueller.
