Feature interview with Gen. Stanley McChrystal

U.S. General Stanley McChrystal was in Ottawa today, giving a speech and speaking to reporters. He used the opportunity to sing the praises of Canada's troops in Afghanistan, while carefully avoiding any attempts to be drawn into the policy debate over whether the Canadian Forces' mission should be extended.

Here's a short excerpt of Susan Ormiston's feature interview with Gen. McChrystal, which will air in full on tonight's edition of The National.
