put it this way... ever seen star wars? the United States is the Empire.
they have enough troops to fight two wars like the one in iraq, and still defend the country from a major attack at the same time, and still have more left to counterattack.Their Military is gigantic, if they wanted to conquer the world and economy wasnt a factor , im sure they could take a good crack at it.
The Canadian army is outnumbered by the new york police department.The entire country is only the same population size of that city in the first place.
MARTIN! EXPAND THE MILITARY!!!!
we have the capacity to support a 100,000 man army, we have around 50,000 i think.On a brighter note:
A corporal in the canadian military could go to the US , and be in special forces.They have so many troops, they dont need to train them to as high of a standard as we do.It would take forever, and cost tons of money, and again, you dont need to because you can ovverrun everybody with the army they have, further training isnt necessary.Its all about numbers.
But, Canada has the second best trained infantry in the world.Number one is Israel if im not mistaken.
