  • this is true bravery and great to see, much respect.

  • These medals are well deserved no doubt. but some of these acts in my opinion rate the Victoria cross? That is the highest medal for valour in the CF. What does a solder today have to do to be awarded that? Don't get me wrong I am not trying to down blay the medals these brave men and others deserve, but in hearing the details of what some of our troops did I have to wonder why no VC's have been awarded during this campaign?

  • @MegaWolfgang Victoria cross is british. The only reason Canadians got it in WWI and WWII was because we were still considered part of the commonwealth.

  • @MrRileyCoyote You need to check your facts my friend. Canada is still part of the common wealth, and the Queen is still head of state. Thus the Victoria Cross is still the highest medal for valor in the Canadian forces. The only difference now is that the inscription for Canada says Pro Valour, rather than For Valour. Check out DND and you will see that the VC is still Canada's top military honor.

  • @MegaWolfgang Good point :P Sorry bout that.

  • @MrRileyCoyote No worries.

  • @MegaWolfgang In order to get a VC, you have to die/sacrifice for someone..I'm a cadet..and this MWO of my corps got a VC...because he pushed his gf out of the traintracks..and he got run over...

  • good old taliban wooo!

  • my brothers and i deserve it more then half these ppl getting this metal...

  • @mousebaby7 go away, have some respect, lowlife

  • Military Job is to go after other Military, when Canada gets involved when not attacked not a British state, not a Church just look at the flag it has a leaf although these scants from Nova and Newfy or Edmonton are on some prejudice they seem foreign even with in our land, Europeans should not under estimate Canadians on Canadian soil their operation belong in their own nations, how can blame anyone in Afghan fighting you that is not Afghan? they accept white Christians not foreign Muslim?

  • i,m joining in a couple months

  • I join in a year and a half!

  • my uncle is in in afgha right now pray for him and others

  • My highest praise and thanks to all Canadian service members who have helped my country in Afghanistan. I will be coming to Canada for vacation this summer. If I happen to run into any Canadian service members, I will not hesitate to give thanks.

    From an American.

  • THANK YOU! Finally someone who can appreciate what we do as we appreciate what you do. Thank you greatly!

  • may i suggest visiting northen ontario, bc or alberta if its the scenery your coming for.. if its the night life check out toronto or montreal both good spots

  • I just came back from vacation and we visited Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa back in late May. We had a great time despite the cold weather. Our tour guide mentioned that Canada has about 8 to 9 months of cold weather annually but I don't know if that is true. We've visited the La Citadel de Quebec with our tour group. I thanked the Canadian soldiers there for their services!

  • I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. And your welcome.

  • haha, canada has various regions with varrying temperatures... where i live.. we get about 3-4 warm months.. but then again.. my definition of warm might differ from somone from ex. florida or texas or something haha...

  • @mousebaby7 stfu ur a fuckin no life fagfuckyface

  • @mousebaby7 ya i know what you mean because my brother and I deserve it more then half these people getting these medals as well

  • @C2LG I think the world of the canadian soldiers, however the harper government treats some like shit.

    Captain Robert Semrau, is charged with 2nd degree murder for plugging an insurgent. If the shoe was on the other foot that Taliban bastard would have beheaded him. If i was a soldier id walk off the fuckin job. No one needs a stupid liability ike that hanging over thier head. Harper should put on a uniform and go to Afganistan, it would man outa him.

  • On Veteran's Day, thank you Canada.

  • Oh Canada Our home and native land True, patriot love In all thy sons command With glowing hears We see, the rise The true north strong an free From far and wide Oh Canada We stand on guard for thee God keep our land Glorious, and free Oh Canada we stand on guard for thee Oh Canada we stand on guard for thee
  • Our thanks to our Northern neighbors, who fight along side us against terrorism. Their service and sacrifices will always be remembered with honor.

  • Thank you! It is very nice to see a pro Canada comment on youtube for a change.. Thanks again.

  • @pcmom82  ..its funny how my brothers and i arnt recognized for all the fights we were in and we did more then anyone....

  • @pcmom82 You're one of the only Americans who don't talk shit about Canadian/ the Canadian Military.

    Props
