Rebuilding Afghanistan
Canada's objective is to help Afghanistan toward becoming a stable, democratic and self-sustaining state.  August 2005 saw the deployment to Kandahar of the Provincial Reconstruction Team, an integrated effort aimed at extending the authority of the central Afghan government.

Reconstructing Haiti 
Canada has played a leadership role in international efforts to re-establish security and stability in Haiti and to assist in longer-term reform and reconstruction efforts. Our commitment is upheld by our $33 million contribution in support of the upcoming elections.
