how Canada can survive in the post 9/11 world

Granatstein believes that our military is incapable of dealing with current and ongoing crises that require well-trained, well-equipped and properly deployed troops. He argues that Canadians' once-vaunted role of peacekeeping is no longer relevant in a post-9/11 world, since recent missions, from Somalia to Kosovo to Afghanistan, are akin to war. He also takes Canadian attitudes to task, criticizing our increasing reluctance to support a military presence in countries such as Afghanistan
