Contacts from 3 Canadian Forces bases in Canada have verified that the Canadian government is preparing the Canadian military for war. Military personnel from the combat military base in Gagetown New Brunswick have been required to participate in extra training, 5 days a weeks. The last time Canadian troops did this kind of extra training was before the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
Military officials have voiced their concern about this mandatory irregular military training ordered by the Stephen Harper government. Canada hasn’t been attacked. Canada isn’t officially at war with any nation. According to Stephen Harper thousands of Canadian troops in Afghanistan are for policing, not combat. Canadian officials rebuke Harper by stating that combat troops cannot assume the duties of policing. Combat troops are trained to kill, not police civilians.
Combat troops are forbidden to attack the civilian population of any state. It is illegal for armed Canadian Forces or US combat troops to bust down doors (break and enter) of civilian homes, take the civilian(s) away against their will (kidnapping), to hold them without charge, torture them, abuse them, humiliate them, discriminate against them based on political affiliation, race, or color, try them in a military court or deport them. It is illegal for armed troops, from any country, to fire on any civilian. Combat troops can only detain surrendering opposing combative forces. Afghanistan is still a war zone as the United States government and the Canadian government of Stephen Harper haven’t withdrawn their troops from Afghanistan. Because it is still a war zone international laws apply to the US and Canadian troops and the US and Canadian government.
