I agree that Canada needs a strong military presence in the North and around our country. Even if its just optically, you have to protect your borders, as the only thing a country like Russia respects is strength.

What I'm not a fan of is when we start meddling in the Middle East and take one-sided views that only turn us into terrorist targets. That region is something I think both Canada and the US needs to back away from, and let those countries figure it out amongst themselves.
