Canada has, by far, the most coastline in the world. They are loaded with natural resources like oil, gas and timber.

Yet they have to spend almost no money defending that vulnerable coastline, because they live next door to the biggest badass country on the planet who takes care of their defense for them.

We spend 54 percent of all federal discretionary spending on defense, and the Canadians snuggle like lambs under that umbrella for free. I wouldn't mind, but then they talk about their grand social programs with a holier than thou attitude. Gee, how can they afford all that?
