What's the most face-palm-worthy statement you have ever heard from a priest/preacher

If you think Canadians don't pay at all for American military your wrong. We are the source of nearly all of your: Uranium, Nickel, potash, and home heating oil. All those nukes you have? Uranium was Canadian. With a little from the Colorado river. I would not be surprised if even some of the gold in fort Knox was Canadian. So do say we get your help without paying a dime.

To answer your other questions. 34 million, the federal defense budget is at 1% of GDP ( a bit low. I feel it should be around 2-3%) and actually but around half of the total players in the NHL are canadian (I think)

That puts you at #12 on this list in terms of GDP but far behind the US in terms of dollars because your economy is much smaller. We spent $571 Billion in 2014.

Sleep well.

Yeah you guys have the opposite problem to us. Where we need to spend more, especially on the Navy, your guys spending is simply out of control and needs to be reigned in a little. Of course simply changing your foreign policy to something less aggressive and getting rid of all the foreign bases except Korea and Afghanistan would go along way in that direction.
