Canada is sending two reconnaissance aircraft, CP-140 Auroras, to Italy to support efforts to protect civilians in Libya, Defence Minister Peter MacKay says.
They should be scaling back what they send, not adding to it. As soon as NATO comes up with a plan to send in ground troops, sure as sh!t Canada will be balls deep in it.

"CDN_PATRIOT" said As of last night, Canadian CF-18s bombed the shit out of an enemy munitions depot, and an enemy airstrip. 500kg laser guided bombs were used.
We got us some.
-J.
500 lb bombs to be precise.
Shit sakes, you sound like some mindless bud swillin' hillbilly.
"We got us some." Wow... just wow.
Not quite the free thinker and visionary you purport yourself to be.

Well, I haven't met nor heard from any of them in the media, polls, or staff I work with. If anything, the mood is somewhat indifferent verging on 'What are we doing there again?' now that the initial feel good factor about helping the rebels has passed and the obvious mission creep is setting in as NATO starts providing close air support.

Doubt it.
I hope you're right, but i have my doubts, especailly if the US asks for a contribution. Then I'm betting the Harper government will be more than willing to send troops.

The Arab League is only marginally supportive of the no fly zone - imagine what kind of warm fuzzy they'll have of NATO landing troops with Bahrain, Yemen, and Syria all vying for 'Middle East's next Top Massacre'
