I agree with the fact that the nature of conflicts has changed and that Canadian Forces have adapted to that change. What I am saying reflects the information which is available to Canadians. But there is a certain level of misunderstanding, which is also reflected in the media and the type of coverage you get. If we are saying that things are going well on the ground, why is this not common knowledge?
I also get my personal information from other people who have been to Afghanistan and whom I have spoken with. I have not personally heard that the situation has slowly improved over the last couple of months. As a citizen, I would like to receive this information so I can gain a better understanding of what Canadian Forces are doing in Afghanistan.
