Us and Canada often play "good cop bad cop" when it comes to 3rd world countries.

US will go in, kick ass, mop up, and then leave. Countries like Canada will then send in "peace keeping" forces to make sure things gets rebuilt the way the US wants. When it comes to an occupation force, it s a lot easier if you can bullshit defeated countries that "were on your side" and "were just here to help".

Canada has little offensive capability in a war, but its occupation (err... I mean peace keeping) forces are amongst the best in the world. Probably because thats what the US wants them to be good at.
