Come on now people, think before you post.
Through both world wars,
the Korean war
Viet Nam
Cyprus conflict
Gulf war
Kosovo
and a dozen other conflicts in the world, Canadian forces have shown themselves well, both as fierce fighters and as peacekeepers. Our peoples have both given and recieved aid from the USA and Great Britain as well as a host of other nations, and we have received much thanks over the years from those countries for sending forces to fight and die at their (your) sides.
In times of war, trust me when I say Canadians do what we need to do to get the job done. You've also got to take into consideration that we are only 1/10th the population of the USA, thus our economy is much more burdened by huge military spending. And the most important point in this issue regarding Canada is this.... we are a peaceful peace-loving nation. Our leaders are statesmen, diplomats, scientists etc. But make no mistake here..... our soldiers and our pilots are some of the best trained in the world. Our military is small, but believe me we can hit hard when we have to. Ask any military man in the world that has actually been in battle alongside Canadians and he/she will tell you the same.
People (original poster especally), when you form an opinion....ask yourself what the fuck you're basing it on before you start voicing it. If it's not based in fact then your opinion is worthless, thus you might as well consider shutting the fuck up.
