Good news! More and more men and women from all walks of life have chosen to enlist in the Canadian Armed Forces with the intent of fighting in Afghanistan. Everyone from 17 year olds to a 54 year old woman have enlisted in a recent recruiting drive. Overall, recruitment is up 40% with 3,400new troops entering the military from April.
Dr. Hubert of the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary gave this explanation for the dramatic rise in enlistment in Canada: “We're at war. But we're on the side of the angels. We are stopping the Taliban from its murderous intent against its own population, so that's human security. And we are in this war to ensure that al-Qaeda is not given a breathing space, so it's Canadian national security. What can be more stirring to a Canadian youth than to know you are participating in that?”
To all our new soldiers !
