Canada played a significant role in Somalia during the early 1990s by participating in humanitarian efforts and peacekeeping missions amid the civil war and famine. The Canadian Forces deployed troops as part of the United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM) and later the United Nations Operation in Somalia II (UNOSOM II) to provide aid, protect civilians, and restore order. Additionally, Canada contributed resources and funding to various humanitarian organizations working to alleviate suffering and provide essential services to the Somali population.
