"Demonstrate our involvement".

I would LOVE for him to expand on what he means by that.

I worked with some Canadians. Cool guys. Stereotypically friendly. The ones that are based are VERY much so. Solid dudes. But VERY different mindset and culture

[realitycheck]

I remember getting very diplomatic with some ladies in Guam a few times. 😎🇺🇸

[jambojambo]

Met Canadian 🇨🇦 sailors in Mombasa - cool 😎 guys. 👍

[trystdodge]

Holy boomer, batman! He even referenced broken glass economics.

I liked the invisible femme's hands folding and unfolding to the tune of this swabbie's promo...😊

Canada's entire military can fit in an American football stadium 😂

It lays the foundation for healthy interaction.
Would allow military and governance communication but potentially lead to connecting with the local people especially their extremists to see whats what n potentially deal with problems n make symbiosis profitable somehow.

I love how countries will let themself fall into a horrible states just to call them self "diplomatic contributers" why don't they just concentrate on making themselves stable instead of almost stable

[achingbach]

Standing armies.
Involvement in foreign countries.
Blind loyalty to power.
Manipulated patriots putting their lives on the line for corrupt rulers.
I have sympathy for everyone that has been tricked into serving the war machine. And likewise for those tricked into supporting said war machine by the vast propaganda networks created long ago. Love my country, hate the government, hate the higher brass controlling and exploiting those who serve. It's all wrong. Violation of principles always getting justified by claiming the practical future benefits outweigh Right and Wrong.

No one is asking you to get involved. Take care of your own people.

Importance of Armed Forces...Canada hasn't had to focus on Armed Forces bc they had/have intimate relationship w USA. They've been able to focus on interior programs. Well, powerful will want control. Increase armed forces, but don't let them be indoctrinated. Try demanding right to carry. It will go further.

[JohnMegaton]

You can think that but to be clear that is not at all what a military is for. This philosophy is why we have standing armies standing around.

[pughconsulting]

In the Navy.. Where we sail the 7 seas!
In the Navy.. Where we get Venereal Disease!

😂 Couldn't help myself.

[wesleywesolowski]

HE IS RIGHT BUT I M CANADIAN WHO SPENT LIFETIME SUPPORT CANADAS MILITARY MEMBERS AND FAMILIES.
I GREW WITH MILITARY FAMILY MY BROTHER IS SERVING CANADAIN ARMY RIGHT NOW AND REGULAR FORCE

[stevenc]

Canadian navy is not even good at surveying their own shore line, so...

[numericaldust]

Clutching at straws to show why the world needs a military.

[mrp]

lets not forget though. officers treat soliders like shite.

[minuteman]

Don't care anymore. The new Canada isn't my Canada and whatever happens to it is of no concern to me. I have advised my children to find greener pastures somewhere else. If you're going to live your life as a stranger in you're own country, you might as well go somewhere else where you won't also be poor.

[quentins]

Ain't no way, Ain't no how. Ya won't see me on the gun ship's bow!

Won't find me in the ditch, won't meet me in the field. No war mongers gonna make me yield!

Killins a sin, you know, and you heard, I smile and wave as they flip me the bird!

Dodging the draft ain't a cowards plot, when all you're doin is savin what you got.
