Peacekeeping has a place of pride in the Canadian national identity. Canadians feel that their nation is a natural leader in this international endeavour. How is this national identity expressed, and howhas it come about? Is it justified? An answer to these questions requires a probe of Canadian public and military attitudes, a historical review of Canada's peacekeeping activities, and an examination of current Canadian contributions. The final question is: What is needed if Canada is to live up to the image of the proud and prolific peacekeeper?

It's a simple recipe, really. Take 50,000 people from disparate political backgrounds in one of the most troubled and war-torn regions on the planet -- add religion and 700 years of bloodshed and ethnic dispute -- and voila! You have the Balkans at a boil. This ain't no Banjo Bowl. It is glorified urban warfare with a soccer match as a backdrop. Red Star's principal gang of ultras, Delije, is currently running a banner on its website which reads, "Kosovo is Serbia." Meanwhile, Partizan's most infamous faction, Grobari, is using its s...
