Abstract
Despite Former External Affairs Minister Donald Jamieson’s claim that Canada had “been the Number One peace-keeping country in the world,” Canadian participation in the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (U.N.I.F.I.L.) in 1978 was limited to the initial period of six months and solely for logistic support. The cautious position taken by the Liberal government is understandable in view of the volatile situation prevailing in Lebanon for a number of years and the many uncertainties confronting U.N.I.F.I.L., which since its inception has been called “the most difficult peace-keeping operation ever launched by the Organization.”
