Knowing the anti-american Liberals, they are probably embarassed and ashamed that Canadian troops are standing alongside the allies.
Yeah. It must be. But sh!t. Canadians have are own planes in the air over the Gulf relaying Americans information for this war effort, we are escorting American war ships in the Gulf and we have a handful of brave troops on the ground with the British and Americans. Just go to the Toronto Star (www.thestar.com) and look for the March 26, 2003 story titled "[b]Defence Dept. confirms Canadians active in Iraq war[/b]".
I guess the part that pi$$es me off is we, as a country, are contributing more than the Japanese to this war effort but because of this stupid government's hypocrisy stand to get a few more votes, we can't let the cat out of the bag and thus, we look bad in the American's eyes compared to the Japanese!
Do you know CFB Kingston Communications guys laid fibre optic cable for that Qatar base? Betcha didn't know that either eh! I know because my neighbour was right in their last summer helping do the work!
