That is a very broad question, Mr. Robillard.
I only deal with matters pertaining to the Canadian Army. Lieutenant-Colonel Allain and myself both have experience in United Nations peace missions, especially in Haiti, in my case, and in Bosnia, in the case of Lieutenant-Colonel Allain.
The United Nations has made significant efforts in improving its command and control structures throughout the years, particularly in this century, I'd say in the last decade or so. In the missions we have participated in, we have ensured that we have clear Canadian command of any troops that go through, and clear rules of engagement to ensure that our soldiers understand what they need to do.
I believe there's a need at the United Nations level to re-enforce and ensure that all contributing countries have that same in-depth process of developing rules of engagement for a particular mission set and have clear command structures to ensure that their soldiers on the ground understand what they're able to do and how they're able to accomplish it.
