FILE--Elissa Golberg, the new Representative of Canada in Kandahar speaks with reporters upon taking up her job in Afghanistan on February 24, 2008. Prime Minister Stephen Harper might not think the war in Afghanistan is a winnable one, but the first person to serve as Canada's official representative in Kandahar says she still has confidence in the mission and Canada's role going forward. Golberg, who until recently was Canada's top civilian in the country's volatile south, admitted in an interview with The Canadian Press that there have been plenty of challenges and setbacks this year as the insurgency has grown and gained strength. But to call the battle unwinnable, as Harper did earlier this month, is inappropriate, Golberg said. THE CANADIAN PRESS/ Stephanie Levitz

Cpl. Scott King, 27, of Lamaline, N.L., from 1 Combat Engineer Regiment, based in Edmonton, returns from grazing Hughes, a two-year-old donkey the soldiers purchased from their Afghan National Army counterparts, at a Canadian patrol base west of Kandahar city, Afghanistan, Tuesday, April 2, 2008. While Remembrance Day is intended to remember those members of Canada's armed forces who gave their lives in defending this country, it is also an important moment to reflect on the cost of war and the sacrifices of all those who have served in uniform. Yet not all those who served Canada - and in some cases laid down their lives - have been people. And while much attention in recent weeks has focused on Conan, the U.S. military dog who helped hunt down the leader of the Islamic State, Canada has its own legacy of animal heroes.
