Canada’s newly unveiled three-pronged peacekeeping contribution is ‘condescending’ and dances around the tough issues, says Retired Maj.-Gen Lewis MacKenzie.
On Wednesday at the UN peacekeeping summit, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that Canada is prepared to offer training, high-end military resources, and a pilot program aimed at helping countries train and deploy more female peacekeepers.
However, the government was not able to offer locations for where Canadian peacekeeping efforts will be deployed, as that’s still being negotiated with the UN.
