Thank you . The Canadian Army has not been in a shooting war since Korea. The Ministry of Defence in Canada is still stuck in peace keeping mode, and "image making."

I think that many hundreds of e-mails went to the Prime Minister of Canada today.

I hope they let the Canadian troops do their work as soldiers rather than take a peace corps approach, that will kill many and cause them to be recalled quickly.

We would do well to do the same. I hate to see our soldiers act as a "police force" and worse yet as missionaries so to speak. They are soldiers for heaven's sake. Not to mention I don't go along with the kid gloves, I think we should be tougher.
