    "Canada's relation to the Iraq War that began in 2003 was unlike Canada's role in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan because it was far less direct. About a hundred Canadian exchange officers, on exchange to American units, participated in the invasion of Iraq." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_and_the_Iraq_War#cite_note-Gollom-2)
