There are a lot of good people in Canada. And we with them the best. But their government has basically concluded that they don't need a significant military because the US will always be there to ensure nothing bad happens.

So they can whine about the US and enjoy our protection without having to expend blood or money to enjoy that protection.

That's the way it is. We should demand though that Canada doesn't become a haven for terroists thru their loose immigration and asylum policies.

If we have to strongly tighten the northern border it could be tough on trade and all those Canadians who like to come south for the winter.

Maybe they should think about that before they vote for an anti-American government.

What is awful about this attitude from these people is that if we actually did have a missile shield apart from Canada because they chose not to participate, and we did not use it to defend a Canadian city, we would never hear the end of it from these very same people.

They would not blame whoever launched the attack, oh no, that would be too easy. Instead they would blame us and burn our flag, ad nauseum.
