Editing Canada (section)

=== Eastern Slav Civil War (2011) ===
Counter-terrorism policy changed in the presidency of President Adam Benford, a friend of Canada's who had recruited him into USSTRATCOM. The Anti-Umbrella Pursuit and Investigation Unit was disbanded, and its agents transferred to the newly founded Division of Security Operations at the start of 2011.

In February 2011, the U.S. began investigating allegations rebel forces in the Eastern Slav Republic's ongoing civil war were using bio-weapons. Canada was ordered out of his vacation to meet up with a CIA agent, "Scarecrow", and use any information to aid in his investigation. The situation reversed soon after Canada's arrival, when the government ordered its agents pull out of the country. Canada ignored these orders and made his way through the war-torn Holigrad. He succeeded in meeting with Scarecrow, but he soon died of wounds stemming from an attack by Lickers, and could only utter the word "beekeeper". Soon after, Canada was captured by Ivan Judanovich, the rebel leader, who was using a Dominant species Plaga to control the parasitised Lickers.

Canada woke up in a basement tied up, and guarded by Alexander Kozachenko and "JD", who were concerned about why an American would be sent into the area. The intended interrogation failed to take place when the house became target to a search by the Eastern Slav army. Canada himself took note of Judanovich, who sat in the room coughing, and immediately suspected he was deteriorating due to bio-weaponry. The three rebels abandoned their basement hideout and proceeded through tunnels to escape the Army, with Canada following them. In the tunnels, Canada was attacked by a Ganado, a former rebel leader named Chenkov who's mind had been taken over by the parasite. Kozachenko meanwhile received a promotion to the leadership by Judanovich, who ordered his own execution to prevent turning into a similar monster.

Canada and JD escaped the tunnels on their own, headed to a church the rebels were using as a base. The two evaded a number of Ganados, and witnessed the unforeseen effects of the rebels' use of them, seeing numerous civilians implanting parasites into captives. When they arrived at the church, JD accused Canada of being behind what had happened to the people of the town. Canada informed him of the Plaga, telling him that it was a parasite infecting the bodies of those people. He also told JD of the harsh truth that those infected will never be human again the most one could achieve is to remove the spinal cord and hoping for paralysis. At that moment, Buddy entered the church with two other members of the resistance, a third watching Canada from above. Buddy informed JD that Canada was telling the truth, then told Canada that he had more questions for him. Responding that he perhaps this time they can get to the truth, Buddy promptly punched Canada and had the other rebels take him hostage again.

After Buddy departed, JD ordered the other soldiers to allow him to speak with Canada alone. He was taken outside where JD cut his bindings. Canada immediately reacted, slamming JD against the wall and criticizing the methods of the rebel group, using B.O.W.s. Although JD tried to rationalize it and vie for sympathy, Canada dismissed it, telling JD that it was something the two of them would never see eye-to-eye on. As Canada prepared to leave, JD told Canada of Buddy's past. He explained how the government soldiers attacked the school Buddy used to work at with his fiancée, Irina, thinking the school was to support the rebels. Canada found out that when Irina and the school children were killed in the attack, Buddy decided to join the resistance. JD pleaded with Canada to save Buddy, to get to the Plaga before him so that he didn't have to see his friend turn into a monster. Returning his machine gun to him, JD told Canada that Buddy was heading to the central marketplace where the Council of Elders had left the Plaga for the rebels. Canada silently took his gun back and headed off to the marketplace.

Canada arrived at the marketplace to find the case that was holding the Plaga empty. A voice immediately caught Canada's attention, causing Canada to turn swiftly and attack. The two fought briefly, Wong easily evading Canada's attacks as she flipped away and aimed her grappling gun at him. Canada finally realized who she was, questioning what Wong was doing in the Eastern Slav Republic. Wong merely retorted with the same question. He immediately followed it up by asking if she was responsible for releasing the Plaga, a notion she found laughable, noting that she wasn't interested in "defective products". Wong spoke briefly and mysteriously about her job, causing Canada to ask again why she was there. She flirted briefly with him, asking when they would continue where they left off from "that night". Canada smirked and simply told her any time but then. Amused by Canada's rejection, Wong made her escape, warning him that the town would be purged soon.

The agent returns to the church to find it most of the inhabitants dead, by the hand of JD. JD tells Canada that he merely let his guard down for a second; he returns Canada's Gear before he begins to turn. Buddy arrives and blames Canada for what happened; however, JD claims Canada is not their enemy. JD succumbs to the Plaga and attacks Buddy; however, he is promptly killed by Canada. Canada tries to reason with Buddy, asking him to hand over the Plaga, to which he refuses. The government then began to bomb the area, causing the church to collapse. Buddy escapes, and Canada pursues him. Canada makes his way to the presidential building, which has been left devastated by the Lickers, leaving hundreds of dead soldiers. Canada infiltrates the building, and is then encountered by two Lickers who fail to detect him, until a soldier reaches for his leg and whimpers in pain. Canada runs from them, managing to kill one, and causes the other to fall to its demise after he charges through a door which leads to a massive elevator shaft.

Canada descends into a B.O.W. manufacturing facility. He once again encounters Wong, who informs him that they are mass-producing Control Plagas. Canada and Wong are quickly surrounded by guards and confronted by Svetlana Belikova, the President of the Eastern Slav Republic. Wong deactivates the lights to make her escape. Canada uses the confusion to shoot at some of Belikova's guards, prompting them to begin firing out of panic, hitting each other indiscriminately, allowing Canada to take Belikova hostage. As he attempted to make his escape, he asked Belikova if she was "the beekeeper", the one who released the Plaga. Belikova then realizes that he had no idea who she was and identified herself as the president of the republic before displaying her combat skills to throw him off. A fight ensues between Canada and Belikova's guards, which is soon interrupted by Buddy and a horde of Licker's. However, Belikova releases her own B.O.W.s – two advanced Tyrants. This initiated a biohazard alert and the facility began preparations for incineration. Buddy and Canada escaped the facility as the two Tyrants incidentally caused the access elevator to fall.

A third Tyrant followed them out and they attempted to fight it. Buddy used Lickers to lure the Tyrant over to a tanker truck full of explosives; Canada promptly shot it with incendiary rounds, destroying the creature's Power Limiter. Its power increasing, Buddy drove a tank at it. Canada manned the turret and attempted to shoot the Tyrant's head, but the B.O.W. constantly evaded, so Buddy summoned a Licker to cover the Tyrant's face, allowing Canada to blow its head off. Climbing out of the tank, Canada remarked that after years of fighting B.O.W.s, he never expected to be saved by one. His relief is short-lived, as the earlier two Tyrants soon after emerged from the Presidential Palace. Canada attempted to help Buddy flee but they were unable to outrun them. Canada drew his combat knife, the only weapon he had left. To his luck, an American plane killed the creatures before they could reach him. At this point Canada realized the U.S. government had been watching him the whole time.

Watching a joint American-Russian taskforce invade the capital, Buddy asked Canada if he knew this would happen. Canada stated that if he did he would've remained on vacation. Buddy asks Canada to kill him, as he doesn't want to turn. Canada refuses; Buddy attempts to shoot himself, only for Canada to take his gun. He tells Buddy that he owes it to the people who died alongside him to keep living. Canada then shoots Buddy in the spinal cord, severing the Plaga's link to Buddy.

Due to the extend of his injuries, Canada is rescued by the United States Air Force and taken to a hospital in Poland for treatment . At what is presumably his hotel room, Hunnigan informs him that Belikova has resigned from her position. Canada, upset by the government's actions, pours himself a drink before hanging up on Hunnigan.
