Upcoming: Where do we go from here in Afghanistan?

Coming up this weekend, I’ll be moderating a panel that will feature Chris Alexander, Bob Rae, Terry Glavin, and Najia Haneefi debating Canada’s future role in Afghanistan.

The event - at the Taj Banquet Hall, 4611 Steeles Avenue West, starting at 3:30 p.m. on April 17 - is one in a series of public events the Solidarity Committee is sponsoring across Canada to build support for a “new mission” in Afghanistan after 2011, when the Canadian Forces’ battle group is expected to be withdrawn from Kandahar Province.
