Canadian Forces soldiers, sailors, and airmen have accomplished and are accomplishing good things with the tools they have. Operation APOLLO, Operation ATHENA, and TASK FORCE KABUL are significant achievements. Canadians should be proud, and Americans should be appreciative.

"Canadians should be proud, and Americans should be appreciative."

You had me in your corner until this. Why should Americans be appreciative of those who are fighting terrorism? Isn't terrorism a problem for everyone...not just the Americans?

I don't even want to go into the way Canadians have treated a children's hockey team and I won't forget the names that so called leaders of Canada called President Bush. If people from all countries are concerned about terrorism, then the burden should fall on everyone's shoulders.

I agree in that our military does a more than formidable job with what they have. As a Canadian, I am very proud of their efforts. I believe most Americans are appreciative as well of the soldiers' efforts, even if they don't happen to express it. However, I also believe most Americans think we should be doing more ... and I for one agree.
