wow, talk about lack of class. Canadians, like Brits, fight along side us with honor and without reluctance.  I was afraid ARFCOM was about to get all butthurt about yet another satire/joke. That clip is really shitty. Fox is going to make "Conservative" a bad word again. |

And we're the fat, arrogant mother fucker under the hat. eta, when most Americans can't tell you what year 9/11 happened in, but most western foreigners can, and they've all sent troops to fight with us because of 9/11, the views they have of us are kinda understandable. |

Trust me I have had my fair share of expeirence with Canuks to know most of them are arrogant asses. At least the Québéçois were. |

They're dumbasses, nothing more.
The show was meant as a joke, even though what they said was shitty, im really hoping they didn't mean it. Like guys in the USA joking about us still living in igloo's 
ETA Yeah, dont make judgements on Canadians based on Quebecors
Come to a place like Alberta, and you'll find a lot of us are pretty good guys, even though in Canada, the ratio of libtards is a little higher. |

Canadian gun laws aren't as bad as people think. No concealed carry, and a few other BS things, but over all, not as bad as a few states here have it. |

This last Friday Canada lost another four soldiers in Afghanistan bringing the total to 116. That may not sound like much compared to the 669 US deaths, but remember Canada has only 1/10th the US population.
And, every Canadian soldier that serves in Afghanistan volunteered to do so, nobody is forced to serve in Afghanistan. Bodies of 4 Canadian soldiers return home

OY, registration no normal cap mags (aka more than 5 or 10), no FALS, no CCW and no taking pistols or ARs into the wood or shooting them on your property... It kinda sucks but we have it better than... well all the G20 except for the States

Like five round magazines. well that is not totally true anymore, there was a loophole discovered, we can have the LAR-15 mags in 10 round cause they are classified as "pistol" mags, but all the other mags have to remain 5 rounders |

In counter-current to the movement American draft-dodgers and deserters to Canada, about 30,000 Canadians volunteered to fight in southeast Asia.[10] Among the volunteers were fifty Mohawks from the Kahnawake reservation near Montreal.[11] One-hundred-and-ten Canadians died in Vietnam, and seven remain listed as Missing in Action. Canadian Peter C. Lemon was awarded the U.S. Medal of Honor for his valour in the conflict. (This cross-border enlistment was not unprecedented: In both the First and the Second World War, tens of thousands of Americans had joined the Canadian forces whilst their homeland was still neutral.)[citation needed] In Windsor, Ontario, there is a privately funded monument to the Canadians killed in the Vietnam War.[12] In Melocheville, Quebec, there is a monument site funded by the Association Québécoise des Vétérans du Vietnam.[13] However, many Canadian veterans returned to a society that was strongly anti-war. Unlike in the United States, there were no veterans organizations nor any help from the government. Many of them moved permanently to the United States. There has been ongoing pressure from Canadian Vietnam veterans to have their comrades' deaths formally acknowledged by the government, especially in times of remembrance such as Remembrance Day. Unfortunately, Canada is pulling all it's forces from Afghanistan in 2011. |

wow, talk about lack of class. Canadians, like Brits, fight along side us with honor and without reluctance. No they don't. They chose to sit out the war in Iraq. They are fighting in Afghanistan under the UN mandate, but they sided with France and Germany on the Iraq war. Don't compare them to the British/ UK. It is not an apt comparison. BTW , Red Eye is a satirical news commentary program that features comedians that aren't afraid to BBQ sacred cows. Unfortunately the Canadian defense chief did say the Canadian Military may need to take a yearlong break to regroup. This cannot be denied. |

Red Eye is mocking the ridiculous Canadian .gov and it's military leadership. Can you imagine what would happen if the US Military decided to take a year off ? Canada at one time had the world's fourth largest army. Now it just relies on it's Southern neighbor for protection at the same time it denigrates us and looks to the United Nations for alliances. |

However the problem is that postings at the UN are still filled with past Liberal appointees, so even with Harper staying in power along time it will take ages to get these scum out of all the civil service appointments. These are non elected officials who beleive they have the right to dictate policy. As for Afghanistan, its anybodies guess if we actually leave on time or not. Harper has made large recent investments in the forces after years of being gutted by the Liberals. But then look at the US forces which are stretched real thin right now and people who were either out, or set to retire or whatever have been put back in the fight. Obama could easily do to your military what the Libs did to ours up here. This kind of damage takes years to fix. |

We're pushing hard in Afghanistan right now. deployments are being extended and more troops heading in. Since we've lost almost all of the ground we've gained, I dunno if it'll be enough.

Quebec is as relevant to Canada as Canada is to the US... same with Ontario vs the Western provinces. Very different ideologies as you go from West to East. |

The thing is Canada actually does have a military and they actually have troops serving with the UN throughout the world Blue Hatters Blue Hatters 
At least their entire Pacific Fleet doesn't spend all winter in San Diego anymore. (Which probably pisses them off. Wouldn't you rather spend winter in Dago?) One of the wildest helo pilots I ever met was a Canadian on a tour with HSL-32 out of North Island. I learned some interesting drinking and pool table games from some Canucks taking some Naval Control of Shipping classes with me. We had several Canadian in my Army ROTC classes. I think once you toss out the Gorfs and Ontario liberals most are pretty good folk. |

Honestly, I can't be bothered by their comments. They are just asshats and I don't need the approbation of the US media to be damned proud of our troops.
And yes, us Canadians are as arrogant as we think you are. And yes, Québec is full of retards, but please, don't put us all in the same boat. And what someone said about his visit to Montréal and Québec City; generally people say it's the opposite, that the people of Québec City are really friendly and that the people of Montréal are dumbasses. I'm kinda surprised of your experiences, actually. I'm not 100% positive that we're pulling out in 2011. It's the end date of the current mandate, but it could be extended, although it could very well be we pull out of A-stan in 2011
