The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) have a long and distinguished history of serving in numerous multinational forces in global hot spots. Over the course of seventy years, 120,000 Canadians have
served in over 50 United Nations operations. These operations have varied from monitoring the Iraq-Kuwait border to serving recently as peacekeepers in war-torn South Sudan. In Afghanistan, Canadians served both with the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) and in a combat role as part of the NATO-led International Security and Assistance Force.

In Afghanistan, Canadians served both with the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) and in a combat role as part of the NATO-led International Security and Assistance Force.
The implosion of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s, between competing ethnic and nationalist interests, saw the CAF come face to face with the abrupt new realities 
of peacekeeping in the post-Cold War world. In Croatia, as later seen in Rwanda
and Bosnia, the model of peacekeeping employed in the Cold War based on strict impartiality and compliance between parties in the conflict fell apart. Instead, Canadian personnel quickly became embroiled in the conflict, caught between their strict UN mandates of non-intervention and the moral quandaries of bearing witness to ‘ethnic cleansing’ in post-communist Europe.
The following list is of Canadian Peacekeeping missions around the world.
