The Conservative government has no intention of withdrawing Canadian troops from Afghanistan in 2009 when the current mandate from Parliament runs out. Defense Minister Gordon O'Connor stated today that:
"This government will support the mission — by our words and by our actions — until the progress in Afghanistan becomes irreversible."
"Afghanistan is a success story," he said.
What fantasy world is Mr. O'Connor living in? Next he'll be wanting to dispatch Canadian troops to Iraq.
