Why always Canada? Does Canada provide some sort of special sanctuary to deserters?

No we don’t, but American liberals seem to think we do. Even during the Vietnam war, deserters were extradited on request.

They did during Vietnam for draft avoiders. But they can, and usually have, returned deserters.

Because they think that Canada is liberal and won’t throw them out, and because it’s close by, easy to enter, and has a similar culture and language.

I always ask that question too. Mexico's warmer and has nicer beaches........Maybe its the Labatts.
