Well NATO's calling for more troops, but the member countires are citing prior commitments and an unwillingness to place troops under a divided command...
As for Canada, well they aren't increasing the number of troops, but they are deploying the Van Doos well ahead of schedule while keeping the RCR (the regiment in country) on the normal rotational cycle - what this means is that for a breief 2 month period or so, Canadian infantry forces will double up so that ISAF gains some more operational mobility to launch a renewed offensive...
Of course the fighting might escalate now that Pakistan has signed a cease-fire with the Taliban...
