Peacekeeping missions have been evolving in terms of military forces and economics. After the establishment of the United Nations, Canada sought to inhibit conflict in many regions, most notably, Asia and Africa. One of the most vital missions that the Canadian military had operated in, is the Suez Canal Crisis during the year of 1956. This canal was controlled by the British and French; however, Egyptian president, Gamal Abdel Nasser, nationalized it in order to construct a dam which would halt the flooding in the Nile River. Britain and France opposed this act of aggression along with Israel and this resulted in a battle between the British, French, Israeli and Egyptians. Lester B. Pearson, an iconic Canadian minister, assisted the UN in a wide array of peacekeeping missions such as the Suez Crisis. Pearson and his colleagues contemplated towards a solution to the Suez Canal Crisis in order to avoid further escalation. He established the concept of a peacekeeping force that would prevent physical conflict while the UN would resolve the political issues between the nations. This idea was favored amongst many, and the Suez Crisis was prevented in Egypt. Lester B. Pearson was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his contribution to the UN and Canada. Later on, Pearson became the prime minister of Canada and introduced pension plans and student loans. Creation of the peacekeeping force led Canada to become a natural leader that regarded peace as its key attribute. Canada was the UN’s most crucial country because of its willingness to maintain harmony around the world. The Canadian public began to honor soldiers who kept Canada safe and traveled abroad for missions. Political parties slowly started to support the military and their operations in order for other nations to view Canada as an independent nation. The United
