Canada pledges three more ships to 'war on terror'

The Canadian navy is deploying three warships to the Persian Gulf, one of its largest naval contributions to the war against terrorism since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

About 850 sailors, soldiers and air force personnel will sail from June to September with an international coalition of ships from the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Pakistan and the Netherlands, the navy announced Friday. The group mainly conducts security patrols and searches suspicious ships.

Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.
