Actually Canada was our biggest external supplier of arms and material in ww2, and they gave us $6BILLION in ‘Mutual Aid’, to be paid back AFTER the war.

Also people in Britain and America should remember ‘reverse lend lease’, by which Britain GAVE America £1.2 BILLION in arms and supplies between Jan 1942 and Sept 1945.

I believe the US was by far the largest “lender” to Britain and the Commonwealth.

Reverse Lend Lease consisted mainly of “rents” not paid by the US for use of British bases.

I like Britain and like the relationship to stay special. ;-]
