If I recall correctly, the Mayor of Toronto requested the army come in to provide assistance. Heaven forbid the CF create some goodwill or positive sentiments. Besides, the Commander on the ground made the call - if you have a problem, take it up with your CoC.

I am also a voter, as well as a soldier. The soldier puts his crappy TV on, wears green in a desert country, and says "yes sir".
The voter says "Wait a minute, since this guy ran as an MP on his past record, why should it not be held up for scrutiny?, and why should I not question the actions and statements of those who are at the national levers of power?"
Just because he is currently in charge does not make him right, it just makes him in charge. Perhaps you've forgotten that?
