Answer: |
Following the previous answer, the military is not necessarily the best or the only institution to serve Canada’s foreign policy objectives. There is a need to develop non-military alternatives, for example civilian defence, supporting the Global Nonviolent Peace force, developing a non-military alternative to the cadets. There is a continuing and transitional role for the military, and I would like to see a continued focus on peacekeeping, support for rebuilding, safeguarding communities in times of transition etc. |
