KANDAHAR, Afghanistan - Military officials say three Canadian soldiers have been killed and five others wounded when they were attacked during a patrol in southern Afghanistan.
Stéphane Dion said:
It is with great sadness that Canadians are once again grieving the loss of three brave soldiers killed in the line of duty in Afghanistan.
The tragic and untimely deaths of Corporal Andrew Grenon, Corporal Michael Seggie and Private Chadwick Horn remind us of the ongoing dangers that our men and women in uniform face every day in the embattled country. Their valiant efforts to bring peace and stability to the Afghan people in a place where peril is ever-present is something that Canadians will remember, and will always be proud of.
On behalf of the Liberal Party of Canada and our parliamentary caucus, I offer my sincere condolences to the family, friends and comrades of Cpl. Grenon, Cpl. Seggie and Pte. Horn. You will never be forgotten.
