How can anyone view this as anything but a proud moment for Canada? The Canadian soldiers did what the French could not, what the British could not (I forget the exact numbers but, combined, I believe they lost some 160,000 men trying to take the ridge) with losses of around 4,000. Sir Arthur Currie does NOT get the recognition he deserves.

What the hell are you talking about 'anti-war'. Rememberance day is about thanking those brave ordinary Canadians like my grandpa who served in the Canadian air force for your basic feedoms that the enemy was tring to take away. Lucky for you, we were better at killing than they were. Our troops did things at Vimy nobody else could and that makes ME proud to be a Canadian. Why do you think Vimy was amazing?

This is a comment that pisses me off about Canada, USA is so patriotic and respected, I think its due that we in Canada are a little more patriotic about our accomplishments. A little more Go Canada Go and flag waving come on people!!!

I think it's problematic that remembrance day has gone from being an anti-war day to being a day that basically celebrates how good Canada was at killing people from other countries. This whole speech about the amazing victory at Vimy Ridge makes me ill.

He lead a Rockstar life. However, his "just society" ended up getting Canada 33 billion dollars in debt. Oh well~
