When President Barack Obama met with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week, the two leaders had a lot to discuss. Both are confronting violent extremism, refugee crises, and attacks on civilians that demand international responses. Both Trudeau and Obama have also made United Nations peacekeeping a policy priority – ensuring that these international forces, deployed to protect civilians and support political settlements in some of the world’s deadliest conflicts, are fit for purpose. It is time for Canada to return to its global peacekeeping leadership role.
