RCAF Station Parent was a radar station and part of the Pinetree Line air defence network. Ground was broken in 1951 and by 1954 the station was operational as an early warning radar station. 14 Aircraft Control & Warning (AC&W) Squadron was the lodger unit operating the facility. In 1963 the station was moved to semi-automatic SAGE operation and in 1964 closed as it was deemed redundant with more powerful radar stations coming online in the sector.
