2011
So Parliament finally did some work and passed (rightly) the extention of Canada's mission in Afghanistan until 2011. This is the right decision. The challenge now will be to bolster the troop, diplomat and aid worker number in the south and indeed across the entire country.
Canada has been on the front lines for longer than its entire involvement in WWI and it is time NATO as an alliance of some 26 countries. It is completely unacceptable that only 4 or so are doing the real work. Hey Germany hey Italy, hey Spain where are you? Getting other countries to take a turn at the front is now our biggest challenge.
Cheers,
