I understand that this event is part of Canada's history.
I don't understand the motivation to celebrate the event.

Events probably driven by some of the estimated 50% of the bail-outs who
remained in Canada. Self-justification seemingly still required after 40
years.

What's your point?
If they helped bring that war to an early close shouldn't they be honoured?

Honoring cowardly acts is not the American way. I'm surprised that Canada
feels differently.

JIMinFl,

You know that I agree with you 100%. Unfortunately, today is not the same
America that you and I grew up in and served for. Expect major rolls.

Running to Canada did not bring the war to a close. It did allow for others
to get killed in their place.

Do you think they were all cowards?
Maybe some didn't believe in an unjust war. Who was right once all the
bulls*it & smoke cleared?
