Canada Dry was the nickname for two Canadian Forces bases in Dohar, Qatar during the first Gulf War.

The two bases, named Canada Dry One and Canada Dry Two, housed land and air elements (CF18 - Desert Cats).

Units stationed at the base included:

  • 409 Squadron
  • 439 Tigers
  • 416 Lynxes

A number of CF-18 fighters were stationed in the bases and flew sorties for the coalition.
