Troops out when?

From the Western Standard blog:

CBC: Fewer Canadians 'strongly approve' of Afghan mission: survey

Jan 25, 1994, Vancouver Sun: Most Canadians want troops out of Bosnia

First deployment in Bosnia: April 1992 End of Operation PALLADIUM: November 2004

MOREOVER: The CBC's torquing of their own poll is a bit much. The news in this poll, if any, is that the level of support for the mission has held steady -- at 50%, give or take a couple of points -- since last March, a very difficult period for Canada's forces. If you have to extract the "strongly approves" from the "approves" to make your point, you know you're reaching.
