Task Force Afghanistan
March 2006 – August 2011
 
Canada's special operations forces are generated and commanded by CANSOFCOM, which is a high-readiness organization, ready to deploy special operations forces on short notice to protect Canada and Canadians from threats to the national interest at home and abroad. CANSOFCOM is capable of contributing to Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) operations across the full spectrum of conflict, from peace through to war; therefore, CANSOFCOM provides special operations support to CAF operations abroad when required.
 
CANSOFCOM's primary mission is counter-terrorism, which involves conducting rigorous and specialized training and working with local law-enforcement agencies, as required, to protect Canadians from the threat of terrorism.
