    No, this is a crock of shit. Our best defence is the logistical nightmare of invading over an ocean, which we happen to be surrounded by three. No yank has ever died in defence of Canadian soil, only Canadian lives have been lost being dragged into foreign US wars. If we’ve let our military be underfunded it’s because we haven’t had any significant threats, and if we need to fund it now it’s because our only significant threat is the USA.
