Canada is *very* concerned with what happens in the rest of the world. We just show our concern through forms of diplomacy and peacekeeping... Canada is well placed to mediate conflicts as we have never been nor do we aspire to be a colonial power (many conflicts today stem from old colonial issues).
Many probably don't know but it was a Canadian, Lester B. Pearson that was behind the idea of using military as peacekeepers. He was a former PM and later a big Mucky Muck at the UN...
His famous quote was, "Peace Through Understanding".
He won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts.
