Slats,

In the northern hemisphere, depending in the minutes of latitude, the crj700 is capable of a forward slip provided the pilots demand 10th stage air from the compressor section of the engine. By doing this it allows the operability valve to release and allow any airflow distributions possibly caused by an aerodynamic slip. Additionally, if the pilot were to engage hyd EDP 3C, the flight control demand is further improved based on flight control wheel Inputs from the flight deck.

Had you paid attention in upgrade, you'd know all this.
