I think Canada is smart to not build a huge military. What would be the point? If for some bizarre reason any country decided to attack Canada, the US would be in there in seconds to help kick ass. So Canada gets a free ride on the US taxpayers dollar. Canada can spend more on education and healthcare because it knows it doesn't have to spend money on military.
