As for working with Americans... if Harper had been Prime Minister during the Bush request to have us join the war in Iraq, he would have said YES and not wiped the cum off his chin. We had a ballsy PM at the time in the name of Chretien who basically said fuck the stupid Iraq initiative...

Canada wound up in Afghanistan during the Chretien/Paul Martin era. Harper merely inherited the mess when he took over. Chretien sent our troops in to a theatre of war without proper funding or adequate equipment.
Harper's the one who's stepped up to the plate and increased military spending to help our lads deal with the shit.
Chretien was too busy making a shitload of money during the Quebec scandal to really care about the military deficiencies.
