This groundbreaking exhibition presents Canada’s participation in the war in Afghanistan. From 9/11 to the evening news, discover personal stories drawn from the chaos of battle and the struggle for peace. This exhibition provides a glimpse of Canada’s involvement in the “war on terror,” and in helping to rebuild a country shattered by years of war.

The exhibition features a number of important artifacts to convey the human experience of the current struggle. These include wreckage from a Canadian military vehicle destroyed by a roadside bomb, a piece of aircraft wreckage from the World Trade Centre terrorist bombing, and material from the Afghan national elections.

An exhibition developed by the Canadian War Museum, featuring images by journalists Stephen Thorne and Garth Pritchard.
