I would say that as a Canadian, there is an obvious difference between 'caring' for the people who serve in our Armed Forces, and caring for a sheepherder if Afghanistan that has absolutely no impact on my life.
Call me a heartless schmuck if you want, but I see absolutely no point in trying to impose our way of life on a people that are still stuck in 12th century ideals.
In the end, we're probably doing more harm than good.
