Do you realize the pay in the Canadian military is double that of the US
military?

Is that because they have to fight French wars too?

Yes, that was a terrible accident. Getting broken glass stuck in your eyeball.
I would have felt real bad about that too. Some jerk threw a beer can out of his
car window last year and hit one of my friends when we were riding our bikes.
She was wearing her helmet and it hit her right on her temple. Knocked her right
off her bike. She almost had a concussion...

Cheers,
Ellen

I believe it's tough to find real men and women with commitment to their
country there, so they have to pay more.

It's because they have to suffer friendly fire from Americans.

Maybe so, but it's still pretty ****ty at the lower end.
