    Lest we forget the cost of peacekeeping

    Quite right ... and it is a real challenge to on one hand recognize the thousands of Canadians whose military service defines them as peacekeepers yet make it clear that that they were only successful because they trained for combat.  Here is an example of the speeches presented at this event.
