Canada’s Army stands on guard for all Canadians. Our team is soldierprofessional, high-tech, well trained, and able to perform a wide range of missions at home and abroad. The Army’s establishment of 19,500 Regular and 15,500 Reserve soldiers are actively serving Canadians in today’s unstable and unpredictable world. Trained and ready for combat, the defence of Canada and North America is our primary mandate. The Army has the skills and capability necessary to respond to a wide variety of potential threats to our security. We are ready to respond to conflict across the globe. Almost 4,000 soldiers a year deploy on missions to places like Bosnia, Kosovo, East Timor, Ethiopia and Afghanistan. Our task: to restore peace and represent Canada internationally. The Army is also prepared to assist provincial and territorial authorities with natural disasters in your community, including earthquakes, floods, storms, and forest fires.
