How is Canada involved in the Libya situation?

Chloe21: How is Canada involved in the Libya situation?
In what ways is Canada helping the situation in Libya? Thanks! 🙂
P.S. Please no negative comments and do not say Canada is not helping at all because I’ve already been told we’ve sent planes over to help.

Just to add to these answers… It was just announced that a canadian general… Robert Bouchard I believe will be leading the mission for NATO.. So now Canada needs to send some personnel. It seems to be this way to make Turkey feel better who apparently was not at ease by a British or French general leading.
