The politicians just need to STFU. It's good to hear MacKenzie backing up Hillier during this time of liberalism in Canada. It reaffirms just who the real men are.

The Canadian Provincial Reconstruction Team has arrived and they look like they know what they're doing. They brought Mambas and Bisons and G-Wagens and M240's on every vehicle. If they get lit up they will dish out worse than they got.

Somebody tell JTF-2 we have two barber shops here.

Nope. One has to be very careful where one points a camera around here.

Wow I feel better about the country today. I'd rather see my "skimmed" tax dollars going straight to the military rather than into Group Action's next liberal campaign.

Thanks for the picture posts.

Parrish, eat your fascist heart out.

I'd feel even better knowing they will be replaced one day, by men who will make them proud, and continue to strongly assert what Canada once, and should again, stand for.

Good pics, though.

Good to see Canadian boots on the ground, helping to make the world a better place.

This a Canadian "Bison" armoured personal carrier. You can mount a C6 GPMG behind the driver on the small turret ring.
The Bison is an all purpose light armoured vehicle. The "Coyote" and "Lav 3" are based on same chassis but have much more firepower. The USMC now uses similar vehicles.

"The Canadian Provincial Reconstruction Team has arrived and they look like they know what they're doing."

That's great news! Thank them for all of us.

Yes - in the scarred hands of men who grew up dishing and eating elbows in the corner.

These Canadians will make a difference.
