The blood of young Canadians helped liberate Europe in the two big wars.

So it did. Now it is relegated to being sent aloft in creaky helicopters and to sea in leaky submarines. I submit that the difference is that the government of Canada used to care about that blood...and now it doesn't.

I agree....as I mentioned to someone else in this posting, the Canadians still honor their "brave" soldiers from 50 YEARS AGO as they have no "brave" soldiers defending and dying for freedom today....
