Sea Kings and CF118's are the new global benchmark, apparently?
All joking aside, Canadian armed forces training is top notch.

No problem relying on Canada. They are part of NORAD and one of the best partners you could ask for. You can always rely on them.
("Oh Canada...) Not being sarcastic.

Training is pretty top level. It's just it is like telling Usain Bolt to run in thong flip flops.

Reminds me of an old joke, about a Royal Navy carrier parked next to a much larger USN carrier. A US sailor shouts across 'hey, how's life in the world's second biggest navy?' A British sailor calls back 'alright, and how's life in the world's second best?'

Hell yes you can. We followed the 'States right into Afghanistan and it wasn't until the Iraqi move that we kind of went, "Hey, hold on. I think our cousins from the south may be crazy!"
But we got over it.

So... For Sweden is finally showing his true colors. He dissed me a while back so I will take this opportunity to not diss the asshole back. :)

Sweden hasn't been in a major war in over two centuries.
Meanwhile, Canada fought and won six wars.

Got no problem with Canada, if that is what you are talking about. My reference was to a personal insult I got.

Damn right. Canada has a long and storied military history and our elite soldiers today really are best of the best. Stories of terrified Axis soldiers in WW2 are legendary. Canadians should be prouder of what we do!

The military equipment procurement is so bad in this country. Hopefully the govt can fix that soon.

Fun note: Discovered JTF2 training base at 3am one night "out for a drive".

Why? Relying on the Americans sounds much cheaper. Saves tons of money for Medicare.

I am all for partnering with and relying on the americans when it is warranted. I think we should give up making our own vehicle safety standards, and things like that. If it's good enough for the americans, it should be good enough for us.
However with the savings, well, the last thing I would do is put them into health care. I would rather have tax cuts.

We try not to brag.
Truth is we are too hungover from our maple and superior bacon to really care about the good old days.

Sadly we got over it.
If I was commander of the armed forces I would've invaded DC then and there and slapped every single Joint Chief and Bush and god damn anyone else who allowed that shit to happen.
Or I would've just sent in the bear calvary and sat back.

Its the American mentality of bigger has to be better compared to the worlds mentality of "Hmm, how do we fit the square into the circle without relying on explosives?"
