I have absolutely no idea why CF would limit a RAS to transponding aircraft only due to operating with a multi-radar picture. The picture contains both primary and secondary information with readily identifiable symbology to tell you whether a target is being painted by either primary or secondary radar only, or combined. That's why military controllers can offer the full RAS.
