HIGHLIGHTS
• Taliban statements monitored during December 2009 claimed responsibility for approximately 20 Canadian deaths.  Canada announced 6 deaths during this period, including that of Calgary Herald reporter Michelle Lang, killed 30 Dec 09 by an IED blast while embedded with Canadian Forces.
During 2009, the Taliban has claimed 12.12 Canadian casualties for every one officially announced by the Government of Canada (400 alleged by Taliban vs. 33 reported by Canada).
• Seven (7) Taliban announcements were monitored mentioning Canadian personnel or casualties in December 2009, compared to an average of 7.93 such reports per month during the previous 12 months.  This also compares to eleven (11) Taliban announcements made claiming responsibility for 68 Canadian deaths during December 2008.
• On 24 Dec 09, the Taliban claimed responsibility for an attack on a “Canadian invaders base in Kunar province”.  Canadian forces assigned to ISAF have no base in Kunar.
• In data collected since October 2008, there appears to be no statistically-significant relationship between the number of Canadian casualties claimed by the Taliban and the number of reported Canadian casualties on a month-by-month basis (r=0.3057, p > .05).
