The one thing thats funny, is that Canadian's are really interesting when it comes to things like this. Even prior to WWII if you would have polled a lot of Canadians would have had the same responses as you see here. I have a family, I have a farm to tend, not my war.
But Canadian's tend to break through that when needed. The Russian's used to say that Canadian's were slow to anger, but when angered it was something to see.
If the cause is right, a lot of minds change in a hurry.
When people talk about Canadians we get under estimated and rightfully so. We're seen as week, somewhat good natured, and easy going. But this country has a impressive military history of rising to the occasion as individuals and a nation when the cause is right.
If Russia suddenly as an example started to subjugate a european nation and the call came out, a lot of us would go without hesitation. Canadians are somewhat reluctant warriors, but this nations warriors always seem to punch above their weight class.
