In 2007, military historian Sean Maloney was commissioned to write Canada's account of the war in Afghanistan. Unlike other official histories, this one would be documented as it was being fought. The three-volume The Canadian Army in Afghanistan, was set to be published in 2014, but it didn't see the light of day for nearly a decade due to, according to Maloney, concerns within the military. The book was quietly, and some say reluctantly, released last summer. CBC senior defence reporter Murray Brewster on the long delay, what's actually in the book, and why historical accounts of war can be so divisive.

The Afghan Detainee scandal became the defining story of Canada's war in Kandahar. It exposed Canada's complicity and direct involvement in war crimes. And it helped fuel the insurgency that eventually brought down the Afghan government. Despite repeated denials by senior government and military officials, there's evidence that many Canadians knew they were sending Afghans to be tortured. So why did so few people do anything to stop it? And what role did Harjit Sajjan, Trudeau's first Minister of Defence, play in ensuring that the full story will never come out?   Featured in this episode: Ahmad Malgarai, Amir Attaran, Sharif Sharaf, Craig Scott, Harjit Sajjan   To learn more: “From Canadian custody into cruel hands” by Graeme Smith in The Globe and Mail “Canada defended Afghan 'human-rights abuser,' memos allege” by Murray Brewster in The Canadian Press “Ethics commissioner acknowledges Sajjan downplayed his role and knowledge of Afghan detainee issue” by David Pugliese in The Ottawa CItizen The Dogs Are Eating Them Now: Our War in Afghanistanby Graeme Smith    Additional music from Audio Network   This episode is brought to you by Oxio, Images Festival, HelloFresh, Calm   If you listen on Apple, subscribe to Canadaland Politics for $2.99/month for ad-free episodes of COMMONS, Wag the Doug and The BackBench. https:/apple.co/3wjxaRW Support COMMONS: http://commonspodcast.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
