    Agreed, I went through that doc. It indicates that Canada is one of the few countries to affirm a “shoot first” policy. Most other countries don’t explicitly have a policy given the subject. The assertion being made above was that child soldiers are never a legitimate target or combatant under international law. That person was incorrect.
