Anti-ISIS mission in Syria built on shaky legal ground, critics say
Without request from Syria or a UN mandate, Canada could be seen as violating sovereign airspace
http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/anti-isis-mission-in-syria-built-on-shaky-legal-ground-critics-say-1.3009643

"If RCAF jets fly missions over Syria it would mean that Canada has joined an exclusive alliance of countries � namely the U.S. and Israel � that have spent the past 15 years trying to broaden the legal justifications for attacking non-state actors within sovereign nations.

"We are taking sides in a decade-long debate, and the side we are taking is one that was carved out by George W. Bush and cultivated by his administration � very controversially," says Michael Byers, a Canada research chair in global politics and international law at the University of British Columbia."


Hmm. What do you think will happen to the percentage of support as Canadians learn of this?
