   They had... In the past... WWII... Other than that Canada does the odd Peace   
   Keeping deals... Sometimes, one that I recall, was their involvement in the 10   
   day Desert Storm.   
      
   I know 1 or 2 live veterans in Canada.  Canada is more passive this is a fact.   
      
   BTW, I was going to join the Canadian Military and I suffered a back injury   
   before I was to go... I finished all the required interview processes and I   
   had to turn down the call because of a back injury that made me unfit.

   I more than likely would have been all in...
