Canada's mission to Libya has cost $26 million to date, and the price tag will likely more than double by the fall, said Defence Minister Peter MacKay at a NATO summit.

Canada is a participant in a NATO-led mission to protect Libya's civilian population from fighters loyal to Moammar Gadhafi.

"The cost of this leadership, with respect to Canada's contribution to protect civilian lives, is estimated currently at $26 million until June 2, and we need to continue the momentum we've achieved thus far," MacKay told a news conference Wednesday in Brussels.

On Tuesday, MPs will vote in the House of Commons on a proposal to extend the four-month old Libya mission to September, a move that would be in line with NATO's timeline.
