Jack Layton and the NDP want to pull Canadian troops out of Afghanistan. It is a cowardly position to take, it ignores the successes that have been achieved so far, and it dooms the people of Afghanistan to a life of terror.

Stephane Dion has a different approach. He wants Canadian troops to stay in Afghanistan, and in particular, in the dangerous region of Kandahar, after February 2009, but demands that they stop fighting.
No more combat. Something short of combat called "security".

And end to combat role, and a move to security and reconstruction.
Meanwhile bloggers like you go on, and on, and on about Taliban Jack, and how clear Harper is.
So what was Harper's position before???
