Wait a minute......Canada has an army????
Not only a army, but one of the best trained ones in the world. Few wars except Korea and Afghanistan but lots of peace keeping. I would pit our special trained forces against any other nation in the world.
Life in Canada is great. I have been in the USA, nice place but way too many people for me, same as Mexico and Europe. Here when one wants to be alone for a week or so there are lots of places within a easy driving distance from the cities. I live in a "big" city in Canada, slightly over one million people. There are 4 million in the province I live in and that province is just as big if not bigger than many European countries. Yes I would not trade being Canadian for anything, including the times when I have to freeze my butt off....LOL
