I Feel so Sorry for Some Americans

Canada means peace and no army in the world does a better job in protecting peace than the Canadian army.

By now it's safe to say every Canadian has heard what Greg Gutfeld of Fox News had to say about the Canadian military.

It's sad really.

I went to school for journalism and one of the first things they teach you is to get the whole story. Mr. Gutfeld obviously didn't do his research.

Canadian soldiers are at this very moment dying in a war that's not there's. Dying to help protect American liberty. I hope he appreciates their sacrifice to protect his right to say these stupid things about our country.

The Canadian army has proven itself time and time again throughout history. We helped the British win the Boer war. The sight of the Canadian corps coming over the trenches in the first world war was enough to cause fear in the German army. The Canadian army moved the furthest inland during the d-day landings, more than any other army. It was the lessons learned by the Canadian sacrifice during the Dieppe raids that helped secure victory during the D-day landings. Peace keepers were established by a Canadian. We are synonymous with peace and military aid.

And now the Canadian army is over in Afghanistan, protecting its citizens. Dying to keep them safe and give them a better future.

To quote Spiderman, "with great power comes great responsibility". Canada uses its power to protect the weak. To secure peace. And we ask for nothing in return.

The United States uses its power to intimidate. To get what they want. Is this not the definition of a bully?

"If you're truly our ally then you'll do what we want."

And if Mr. Gutfeld thinks now is a good time to invade our country because we "have no army" then I say bring it on. The U.S. tried it once before and failed and now would be no different. They may take some ground in the beginning but we would fight back. We would push the U.S. army back through their borders, past their capital and watch as they're crushed between us and Mexico because, let's face it, Mexico won't be coming to their aid.

In fact what allies would they really have. Once one bullied nation stands up to the bully the rest will follow suit. Canada is not just one nation. We are still part of the British monarchy which automatically allies us with England and every other nation under the Queen.

I extend Mr. Gutfeld this invitation: come to Afghanistan, ride with our troops while they travel the Afghan roads. If you still think Canada has no army then so be it. Come back to the United States and say what you want. We won't stop you.

This was not meant to be a stab at all Americans. I know they don't all feel this way. And don't get me wrong, while I don't agree with the war I do have a lot of respect for all the men and women from all the nations over there trying to make a difference. It takes a lot of courage for them to do what they do. Something I don't think Fox News knows anything about.
