Doubtful. Troops are considered ground soldiers. There isn’t even a mission for us troops yet. We ordered the evacuation of Canadian soldiers from the region last night. We’re leaving. The why is another discussion entirely as “‘Iraqi” forces begin shelling us bases in Iraq.

I believe the strong opposition of the Canadian public to this monstrous and illegal war would only increase if Canadian troops were to be directly and deliberately exposed to the dangers of active participation.

This is a wake up call for all Canadians to be conscious of what war means. I say no to war, no to making or using arms against any country. Don't people realize the suffering in Gaza, in Ukraine ,in Sudan that the use of arms bring about? If we think we need to defend ourselves, we need to be ready for unarmed civilian defense.
