As a professional soldier, he has served Canada with distinction for more than thirty-five years. In the role of Chief of the Defence Staff, he led the Canadian Forces through extremely challenging times, marked by a war in the Persian Gulf, a major domestic crisis and an unprecedented growth in the number of peacekeeping operations, in parallel with a significant downsizing of the Forces. He also devoted a great deal of time and energy to Scouts Canada's National Council and to the organization's Substance Abuse Task Force. He is now the Canadian Ambassador to the United States. |
