I think the funniest thing that I saw was that Canada was promising these peace keepers to the UN for these dangerous missions into Africa. But when push came to shove the government came out and said, what we'll do is train other companies peace keepers.
However Canada real experience in peace keeping has long since departed from the Forces. Even the guys that served and fought in Afghanistan are becoming few and far between.
So frankly I'm sure that if other countries want to train peacekeepers they can open the same textbook that we would open.
We really don't have a solid level of peace keeping experience anymore to call ourselves experts or experienced.
