This year, for the first time ever, Belize hosted Exercise Tropical Dagger - a Canadian military initiative. Tropical Dagger, a two-week special forces exercise which is usually held in Jamaica, allows participating defense forces to apply skills in realistic training scenarios. Today the Canadian Special Operations Command, the Belize Defense Force and the Jamaican Defense Force demonstrated the use of equipment contributed by Canada.
Exercise Tropical Dagger is conducted under Canada's Anti-Crime Capacity Building Program which aims to reinforce partner military's ability to prevent and respond to threats posed by criminal activity.
