it is a good sign that the armed forces can not recruit "enough " new members. I have not really seen a white paper describing the mandate and the limits of operation for the Canadian army- Of all the conflicts Canadians have been drawn into to demonstrate loyalty to NATO many were not sanctioned or even illegal and I can not think of a single one that resulted in resolving a conflict- Interestingly the mandate of NATO does not oblige all Nato members to get involved ,in the case of one having triggered the conflict ( for example if a European Nation - say France or Poland went into the Ukraine -the US or Canada would not be obiged to join the war)
