[American Soldier]

THE FORCE LUKE, USE THE FORCE!

We should be arming these men ourselves. If the Canadian government won't meet coalition responsibilities, then as a leader among nations we have the responsibility to do so.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Light Brigade? Does that mean they are armed with laser swords?

[chance33_98]

Maybe they completely outlawed guns in Canada.

[WellsFargo94]

They could develop the tactics used by the Palistinians, the "Throw Rocks" Brigade or even the elite "Stupid enough to blow self up" squadron.

[NewRomeTacitus]

Can't resist. Would that include a light-in-loafers contingent to insure inclusiveness or are they falling back on the Molson Strategy?

[dead]

I guess they'll just whine and bitch in a French accent, until their enemies run away.

It'd work for me.

"There are reports tonight"

Methinks we won't hear back from you when you find out your leg is being pulled...

[wafflehouse]

at least they werent french body guards.. but then, if something happened, the french would make excellent decoys as they are running away, and the canadians could just pick the guns back up

[Fixit]

Don't laugh too hard at Canada. Californiastan pulled a similar stunt a few months back.

But a lot of military types, particularly guys in special-operations units, like to supplement some of the standard-issue weaponry with privately purchased handguns and gun-related equipment of their own choosing. Often the handguns and equipment they can buy in the private market are better and more advanced than the standard-issue stuff.

But getting those handguns can be a big problem in California, which has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation. Although law enforcement personnel are exempted from many of the restrictions on purchasing firearms, military personnel stationed in California are not - even if they're on their way to a combat zone.

They will be spilling maple syrup on the ground, hoping that the enemies get hindered by it.

[Slings and Arrows]

The Canadian government is not fit to lick the boots of the men who serve it.

[WaterDragon]

Did the Canadian government at least send food along with the chaps this time? Criminy. No army on earth deserves the Canadian government.

Still waiting for charge of jokes....

Canadian Forces Sent to Fight in Afghanistan Without Guns

That's a hell of a way to fight a war. They must be French Canadians.

[Crowcreek]

Seems like a logical consequence of Canadian national healthcare. No money for rifles, and no need -- Just keep patching up troops in those free hospitals.

[Lockbar]

Canadian troops will be forced to throw empty bottles of Molson's if attacked!!!

[AxelPaulsenJr]

With no guns the Canadians relaxed with a little reading.

[keithtoo]

Let's go men, remember we're fighting for Chretien!!"

[PALACE ATHENA]

the canadians will send the mounties and hope that the enemy will step on the horses crap and surrender.
