I know that this has been said before here, but it bears repeating.
Canadians don't start wars, but we do stay around long enough to FINISH them, and we have buried a lot ( over 100 thousand ) of our guys in foreign places, over the years. If allowed to fight without political "hand cuffs " we can beat the Taliban, too.
Our military traditioins are different from other nations, and we don't spend a lot of time blowing our own horns, or making "patriotic movies " about our selves. What we do is get on with the job, without fanfare or BS.
Tough, fair, well trained and professional, with a strong sense of humour and grit, that has been the Canadian way of soldering, for more than 100 years now. I don'r see any reason to change that, do you ?
Thanks for the chance to speak my mind to the forum.
