RE: Thanks JennyNo VanHope we as Canadians may not show our patriotism like the Americans, but we are not ones to gloat and put ourselves on a pedestal. Yes many Americans and Canadians have died for a cause they/we believe in. I hope you are not right about going backwards, it truly would be a waste, but I believe it will revert back. I am hesitant to suggest we stay longer in Afghanistan to fight for those who can't fight for themselves.
