So a NORAD response. Presumably CAF F-18's from Cold Lake (?) and we know the KC-135R tanker was from Fairchild AFB in Spokane. News also mentions F15's. Nearest base for those is Mountain Home AFB just outside Boise, Idaho. Which explains the tanker I suppose. Did they actually make it as far as YYC? Hard to track them like you can the tanker.
