I know that Canada has provided logistical support and financing to the African Union, but for UN peacekeeping, particularly in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we were asked several times to send two or three or four particularly high-level, strategic, well-skilled people at the level of general to assist the African Union, and we said no.

population ...[+++], but the Christian population is also very much at risk in this country, would Canada be prepared to assist, if asked, and actually send troops to assist a multilateral effort to keep the peace and save lives under the doctrine of responsibility to protect?

e sais que le Canada a fourni un soutien logistique et financier à l'Union africaine, sauf que, dans le cadre de missions de maintien de la paix de l'ONU, surtout en République démocratique du Congo, on lui a demandé à plusieurs reprises d'envoyer deux, trois ou quatre grands stratèges, autrement dit des généraux hautement compétents, pour épauler l'Union africaine, mais le Canada a refusé. La situation se détériore rapidement et semble vouloir tourner au génocide, surtout
à l'encontre de la population musulmane, quoique les ...[+++]chrétiens courent aussi un risque énorme là-bas.
