When did Canada become a part of NATO?

Answer 1

Canada is a founding member of NATO. At the close of WWII, Canada had the third largest navy in the world. Canada's primary NATO role (in a time of large-scale warfare) is securing shipping lanes between North America and the U.K./Western Europe.

Answer 2

Canada has been part of NATO since 1949 and was one of the first countries to join. Canada has been doing its part and have been doing it very well. This organization has had Canada being a part of it for a very long time and could'nt run NATO with out Canada's help. I, Presedent of NATO, am thanking Canada for there help and support.What is NATO? You may ask, well NATO was made after Worls War 2. NATO was made to protect most countries from ever having a world war again. That is why it was made after the second world war. The counties that NATO protect and that are involved in are: Canada, Unites States, Spain, Romania, Poland, Norway, Luxemburg, Italy, Germany, France, Czech Republic, and Belgium.

Improving. . NATO was formed to help non communist countries in Europe from being attacked by communist countries, led by the Soviet Republic. By becoming a member of NATO, you were pledging your countries support, as if they themselves were being attacked. NATO now consists of 19 countries.

Answer 3

Yes, Canada is apart of NATO. Which is why Canada is involved in Afganistan. Canada is part of the Alliance which was formed along time ago. (cant remember the date, Sorry!) To this day if another country that is involved in NATO is under-going a war, then all the NATO involved countries are obligated to help out in the fight, in any way.
