It’s great that you’re one of the few Canadians remaining that isn’t a gibsmedat ne’er do well with a hand out for American freebies. I respect Canadians that deserve respect, like the veterans of World War 1 (Ypres, Passchendaele, Cambrai), World War 2 (Dieppe, Normandy), and those who fought in our current dustups. I have visited many forts in Canada, particularly Fort Erie, and have a lot of respect for the Canadians of old who had the gumption to push back against the USA at times. What the hell happened to those Canadians?
Canucks today just whine and moan about the mean old USA and try to be like the worst of the European “social democrats” (i.e. communists) who want the USA to continue to shoulder the burdens of the world while they all just kick back and sponge off the American taxpayer to fund their welfare states. I recognize that the people of this country lost their minds when they elected and re-elected Hussein, but how is it that the Canucks didn’t learn from this and kick Justine out on his ass? Canucks are now like a nation of Bernie Bros and the shiftless ilk that populate our own Marxocrat Party.
This is tough talk, but the truth hurts.
As far as our military, it consists of very brave men and women doing their best with what little they are given. Sadly no government in the last 30 years has done the military justice by actually funding it. Funding levels should be double what they are now.
I agree. Just for the sake of our own national identity it would serve Canada to not live off the back of the USA. Some times our foreign policy may depart form the USA, but how can we seriously depart if we rely on the USA for rides out to the battle field.
