Canada has not designated its mission in Afghanistan as "wartime service" because existing Canadian legislation lacks a legal mechanism to apply that label to modern conflicts. The Canadian government has not formally classified any military deployment as wartime service since the Korean War, relying instead on a post-1953 administrative category called "Special Duty Service".
