They can support the US with fuel but otherwise won't be of much help in a major conflict. (www.youtube.com)

Tell it like it is, flash-animated AI-voiced video! -- nm - mafic Jul 12, 07:24
being next door to the biggest dog in the neighborhood makes it not really necessary. The US would have to assist otherwise they'd get invaded from - Beaker 🍺 Jul 12, 07:01 4
- Of course. Having both a very friendly and powerful neighbor allows Canada to not have to focus on a robust military. Also, we don't really have to - Krusty Jul 12, 07:10 3
  - you know that video is pretty ... slanted. I agree we need to modernize and upgrade, but -- (edited) - Andie Jul 12, 07:12 2
    - Yeah, I'm sure it is and I know there's a lot more info and details not included. But it's also not far off and invalid in its assessment. -- nm - Krusty Jul 12, 07:14 1
      - And I don't think it requires glorifying the military like we do here. That's certainly not the way for any country to go. - Krusty Jul 12, 07:18
It's time to invade!! -- nm - decline Jul 12, 07:00
we have 1/10 the population and more land. We are well aware we can't defend it. -- nm - Andie Jul 12, 06:57 3
- It's more than that. It needs to modernize, recruit much better and just focus on where its strengths are as there's no way to be a well rounded - Krusty Jul 12, 07:03 2
  - "changing the entire culture of Canada", to be more militaristic and paranoid? not sure that's a plus. -- nm - Andie Jul 12, 07:04 1
    - Oh, I'm certainly not saying that's what should happen. I'm saying it won't happen because it would require a massive change in culture. - Krusty Jul 12, 07:06
