Canada to send 6 Griffon helicopters and an estimated 150 peacekeepers on a UN mission to the dangerous country of Mali . This of course was Keeping Justin Trudeau promise to restart Peacekeeping operations. Which stopped after the disaster in Rwanda and Canada's involvement in the war in Afghanistan .The move has overwhelming support . But fear are very real history might repeat itself .

I tell you - I think Canadians are simply too polite to be peacekeepers. Especially in a shithole like Mali.
I mean, even their road rage is not up to snuff!

This is clearly fake news. '150 peacekeepers', me bony white arse. Everyone knows that the entire Canadian army consists of a single middle-aged fur trapper who drinks heavily and is still bitter over that divorce.

I disagree. First time in history anyone even gave a shit. It;s okay to fuck it up..that happens sometimes. Trying is improvement when apathy has been the norm.

At least not until it's appropriate to do so and it can be blamed on the US.....
