Canada Gives 10M For Afghan Police Salaries

"Our contribution will help further this objective, resulting in a more professional police force to better serve the people of Afghanistan." A leaked U.S. government report in December said the U.S.-trained Afghan police force was riddled with corruption and incapable of carrying out routine law enforcement. Washington, which contributes $1 billion US to train the force, says the force has about 50,000 members, although the report said 70,000 were on its payroll. http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2007/01/08/mackay-afghanistan.html
