Canada is responsible for many of the the rules that exist in the Geneva convention. They have a reputation for war crimes and being merciless.
Even if the pop culture version of Canada is about getting nice, they’ve got their dark spots.
Comment on Canada to stop sending arms to Israel, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says

Oh so like, one gun? When I think of Canada, a well supplied military doesn’t come to mind. They’re basically riding the wave of “America will protect me”

At this point it’s better to send 0 out of 1 then send 1 of 1.

It’s not about our own under funded military, it’s about the export products. Canada has a sizable arms industry. For example we have exported over 1000 Senator armoured vehicles to Ukraine. We are a project partner in the F35 program as well, which I assume will mean that deal will be grandfathered to allow Israel to continue to receive them. This is unequivocally a good announcement, hopefully it will lead to more nations moving away from supplying the IDF.

It turns out, what you think of Canada is entirely irrelevant.

Methinks someone divorced a Canadian and is super bitter about it 😄

Who the fuck says “methinks”??

I do, when the occasion calls for it.

That’s fair. My opinions on Canada are about as irrelevant as Canada is to the rest of the world.
You all do anything about that assassin from India yet, or you still asking for Daddy America’s permission?
