    With Canada’s policy of keeping the borders wide open and allowing itself to be invaded, what do they need a military for?

      keeping the borders wide open and allowing itself to be invade

      I hope you’re referring to Chrysler’s field. It’s an example of the continued trend of Canada Not being invaded.

      Did you confuse America and Canada? Hint: the white House that Canada super burned-down was the famous one in America.

      The usual scaremongering, Russia is a threat. What they really mean is that they can’t be economically successful when we aren’t. The WEST says it’s a Free Market booster and welcomes commercial competition, but in reality we don’t, it’s all lip service. That’s why successful emerging powers like China, being an economic threat, must be made into a villain and therefore a military threat.
