Canadian Point of view.
Canadian Point of view.
It's nice to be Canadian except for all the forced french in everything sold... And french in schools... And french in total.
An I appologize for PM Cretien for not backing the USA like he should have right off the start. And I appologize for some of our musical artists (Brian Adams etc)
But one thing I will never take for granted is the ability to know that I will never be drafted into a war I do not believe in.
I know you got hit on Sept 11. I concider that an attack on canada as well as your beloved states. I respect the Old Stars and Stripes more than out crappy Leaf Flag.
When Bush first went to wat agains Bin laden, I was 100% behind him. But now that he just focuses his attention on "Freeing Iraq" how is that going to help get revenge or justice for the towers???
Bush being an Oil Baron (With daddy Bush) just shows his true intention.
The draft bill connot pass. Sure you are defending your country but think about it. The people who are over there now are people who signed up for this job. If they want relief then they are to be relieved by others who have accepted the job.
You can't sign up for a job as a janito and then as soon as they tell you to clean a really Shitty Toilet say, "Hmm, I wanna go home.. You should draft someone who didn't sign up to do this, and make them clean it up". It doesn't work that way. Sending in people who don't want to be there would be just as good as sending in scared children because the result will be the same.
In the end, they should just Ask people (Showing the dire need for soldiers) with commercials, Military TV Shows, Contests, etc. People will step forward before there is a real need for a draft.
What good is a free country, where you can't choose your fights or choose to be peacefull or not.
Canadian Point of View EH !!
