Well, I guess that Canadian soldiers should hide and be afraid. Maybe they will follow the example of Finland? :)

Just like they told US servicemembers after 9-11 and during the Afghanistan war...

It actually had the opposite effect they were hoping for...many civilians told us they preferred seeing any servicemember in uniform, even if unarmed as it at least demonstrated some show of force and not capitulation.

Run, hide, take cover, raise the white flag!

It’s a great day to French (Canadien) isn’t it?

Libs don’t like military uniforms because it might scare the children...

Soldiers who are afraid to wear the uniform don’t inspire a lot of confidence.

A government who orders its soldiers not to wear the uniform inspires even less.

It looks to me like the man shot was a member of the canadian honor guard.

I wonder if this means traditions like our own honor guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, etc may be discontinued.

I expect that the left would love to dispense with all these antiquated traditions anyway. The fruits of diversity.

The best thing to do is to outlaw Islam, shut down all mosques and demo them, and deport all Muslims to the Islamic hellhole of their choice by boat.

Canada Soldiers told not to wear uniforms in public
****
That reminds me of the Afgans who we trained as soldiers...when they see the enemy, they take off their uniforms and flee.

Arm them with at least a sidearm instead and the crap will cease.
