To: A Formerly Proud Canadian

...fyi, the specific beach was Juno that the Canadian 3rd Infantry Division had the responsibility to take from the Germans led by the the 9th Canadian Infantry Brigade and it’s 2nd Armored Brigade.

They encountered heavy resistance from the German 716th Division and lost 340 dead, 574 wounded and 47 captured.

This fact alone should disqualify Trudeau from leading Canada. Like the US in part, History obviously & simply has not been taught in Canadian Schools for decades.

My grade 12 history consisted of non-stop US bashing. We loved progressives like Wilson of course. But damn you Yankies and Vietnam and Grenada and the Contras, ect, ect.
