... Some officers in the Canadian Forces tried to raise concerns early
on in the war that removing Gaddafi would play into the hands of
Islamic extremists, but military sources say those warnings went
unheeded. Later, military members would privately joke about Canada’s
CF-18s being part of “Al-Qaeda’s air force,” since their bombing runs
helped to pave the way for rebel groups aligned with the terrorist
group.

...

Gaddafi was considered a brutal dictator, but in later years he was
embraced by Western leaders, who provided his forces with military
training and weapons.

Analysts with the Department of National Defence also noted Gaddafi
was a staunch ally of the West in the war against Al-Qaeda and Islamic
extremism.

His efforts against Al-Qaeda-backed forces and his co-operation with
the U.S. in providing information on terrorist networks were
highlighted in a number of DND reports from 2002, 2003 and 2006
obtained by the Ottawa Citizen using the Access to Information law.
