UNFORTUNATLEY,,,Canada does not have a Peace Corps, in the
civil sense like that of the American Peace Corps of the
United States...

Loosley considered the Peace Corps of Canada, the Canadian
Army is a non-engagement force, which usually serves as
peace-keeping, conflict resolution and disaster-relief
forces...
however, for any private Canadian citizen who wishes to
participate in any relief effort for Canada in a
non-military dicipline..unfortunatley can't...
UNLESS, you join such organizations as CUSO and similar
NGO's...HOWEVER, again, CUSO is greatly different from the
Peace Corps, because CUSO recruites ONLY professionals,
which means people who have "professional"
experience which can be utilized in a similar needed skill
in an affected area in the world..in other words, you'd have
to be a working man/woman...
whereas, in the Peace Corps, high school grads can join and
help..

We DEFINITLEY need a Peace Corps in Canada!!
