Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan
A Canadian gun detachment fires an illumination round from their M777 155mm howitzer in support of Coalition forces. B Troop is part of A Battery, 1st Regiment Royal Canadian Horse Artillery (1 RCHA) based at Shilo, Manitoba. 1 RCHA is part of the 1st Battalion Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (1 PPCLI) Battle Group.
Canada’s mission in Afghanistan is part of our contribution to the international campaign against terrorism. The overarching goal is to prevent Afghanistan from relapsing into a failed state that gives terrorists and terrorist organizations a safe haven. The next phase of Canadian operations in Afghanistan will continue to help improve the quality of life for the Afghan people, and to ensure that the progress made is sustainable.
The Canadian Forces (CF) contribution to Afghanistan will grow to about 2,000-strong by March 2006, and the deployment of additional troops has begun. Task Force Afghanistan will be based primarily at Kandahar Airfield and Camp Nathan Smith in Kandahar City, while approximately 85 other personnel are assigned to various military headquarters and civilian organizations in Kabul. Lastly, about 200 CF members are deployed at a support base elsewhere in South West Asia.

La mission du Canada en Afghanistan, qui s’inscrit dans le cadre de la participation du Canada à la campagne internationale contre le terrorisme, a pour objectif principal d’empêcher l’Afghanistan de redevenir un État défaillant servant de refuge aux terroristes et aux organisations terroristes. La prochaine étape des opérations canadiennes en Afghanistan permettra de continuer à améliorer la qualité de vie de la population afghane et d'assurer la durabilité des progrès réalisés.
L’effectif des Forces canadiennes (FC) en Afghanistan atteindra les 2 000 personnes d’ici mars 2006, et des troupes supplémentaires ont commencé à être déployées. Le gros de la Force opérationnelle en Afghanistan sera basé à Kandahar – au terrain d'aviation de Kandahar et au camp Nathan Smith – tandis que quelque 85 personnes seront affectées à Kaboul, dans divers quartiers généraux militaires et organismes civils. Enfin, environ 200 membres des FC sont déployés dans une base de soutien ailleurs en Asie du Sud Ouest.
