I have two questions for you, and then we'll solicit some answers. Following up on my last comment, if Canada were to provide the UN missions with substantial military capability in the future, would the Canadian Forces, in your view, be able to secure their own conditions for the mission—in other words, their terms with regard to armaments, mission mandate, and rules of engagement? Would we have more clout given the international situation and the reluctance of many developed countries to be involved in peacekeeping?
Second, particularly for Asia, I hear a lot of comments about the Japanese and others being interested in being more engaged in the peacekeeping role, particularly because of the Japanese experience in the Golan. Could we maybe focus our efforts more on training at home, rather than on active missions abroad—or on a combination of both—but in fact on doing far more training, particularly for some countries that have traditionally not been involved in the peacekeeping operations in the past?
Through you, Mr. Chair, I open that up. With the four minutes I have left, I figure that would be helpful.
