Radical Extremism and Opposition New Democrats

Opposition New Democrats: The question of what role the military should play in halting the spread of radical extremism across the Middle East was at the heart of Thursday debate about expanding Canada mission in the region, according to The Chronicle Herald. The Opposition New Democrats want the soldiers pulled out immediately, while the Liberals suggest they could remain, but solely to train existing security forces and The Conservative government has signalled its intent to keep the existing Canadian Forces contingent in Iraq there for another year, and to broaden the mission to include airstrikes in neighbouring Syria.
