Interesting... if you're against the War in Afghanistan you're automatically someone who doesn't appreciate Canada and being Canadian?
I don't support the War... I've never thought of myself as 'gutless' or someone who supports 'cutting and running', but apparently that's the only available brush to paint someone who doesn't support it. I'd support it if we (NATO) were there to win, but we're not. We're there to break even. Watch and see what kind of 'victory' is achieved in Afghanistan in the end and then we'll discuss how that was worth the cost of young Canadian men and women.
If Afghanistan sinks back into chaos (whether or not Canadian soldiers stay there), are the sacrifices Canadians made there going to be deemed 'worth it'?
