An analysis of military mobilization in Canada from 1867 to the present, focusing on factors that influence security needs. External factors that affect the supply of & demand for mobilization include: (1) type of threat (eg, nuclear vs conventional); (2) response flexibility required to meet various types of threat; (3) response time likely to be available following the threat; & (4) requirement gap, ie, difference between peacetime & wartime requirements. Internal factors that affect requirements by influencing government policy include: costs, public opinion, & internal politics. The relative strength of these factors has varied throughout Canada's history, & their collective influence is more important than that of either group of factors by itself. Traditional hostility toward military approaches has discouraged excessive militarism. Although current internal policy factors prevent a large peacetime commitment, more effective mobilization would enhance Canada's deterrent capability in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. J. W. Stanton

While Canadians have been called an "unmilitary people," Canada has played a significant role in many wars, from South Africa to Korea, and has been able to mobilize its resources to meet the demands of war. This paper concentrates entirely on the mobilization of military personnel: the process of moving armed forces from peacetime to wartime levels. Its analysis centers on the internal and external factors that influence force requirements and availability and on the means of filling the inevitable gaps between peacetime and wartime needs. Canada's mobilization policies are currently emerging from a period of neglect and must resolve the traditional tendencies of an unmilitary people with the demands of modern conventional war.

Abstract: This article discusses the military phraseological units and language. It is the painstaking work of linguists to focus the core of the word and see the extraordinary harmony of the word. Failure to understand the true meaning of phraseology can lead not only to a violation of the accuracy of speech, but also gives rise to inaccuracies in the punishment of sources of law. In order to achieve the accuracy of using military phraseological units, it is necessary to use appropriate terms and words that combine expressive words from the lexical layer of our language, rich in different forms, to understand the meaning of words military phraseological units. Keywords: military phraseological unit, modeling, language, military operations, gradation.

United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 (UN, 2000), initially adopted on 31 October 2000 and updated with a resolution in 2009 (UN, 2009), proclaimed all peacekeeping personnel – military, police and civilian, will receive training on the protection of women. The purpose of this research was to review and compare how the U.S. military and forces of NATO/Partnership for Peace countries educate and train their military on the overall use of gender as a planning factor in support of this resolution. The researcher conducted a phenomenological qualitative study that consisted of interviewing 12 personnel regarding their country's National Action Plans, any training on gender perspectives available and if there was success in implementation of UNSCR 1325. If not successful, a review of possible barriers was analyzed.
