  • Just for your information Peter Mackay has been to Afganistan, and he even had the opertunity to experience training in Petawawa as a Private Recruit. I have a lot of respect for that man for being there for the troops. I don't think you could ask for a better defence minister.

    check it out on youtube. :

    Peter McKay Making Politicians Work PART 1 - BOOT CAMP

  • I support our troops but OUR GOVERNMENT IN OTTAWA DOES NOT!

    No support at all.......Where is THE  WAR CABINET , in Ottawa, with the focus on WINNING?

    You can't win a war without a COUNTRY WIDE EFFORT!

    .Where are the helicopters, the men and the weapons that are NECESSARY TO PACIFY AND OCCUPY KANDAHAR CITY and KANDAHAR PROVINCE adequately.

    Ottawa prefers political "one upmanship" games between the political parties.

  • Yes, if ur with us, ur a Freedom Fighter, if NOT then ur a terrorists...........

    Avatar = Afghanistan

  • Much thanks to our brothers from the north.

  • Peter Mackay why are you not in Afganistan . What a waste of lives , your the Canadian Defense Minister , No one has attact CANADA .

    BRING OUR TROOPS HOME >IT'S NOT OUR FIGHT >

    We are the third man in , in hockey thats a penalty , and young boys and girls are paying for your poor choice ,

    dont lose ur lives for americas bullshit,

    the taliban were created by the USA, its their problem not the Canadians, let the stupid americans die
