The CBC of Canada decided to run a piece on the "Reality of War" in Afghanistan showing footage of an American journalist embedded with Canadian troops - the CBC wanted to shock Canadians with the horror of the war and the injustice - problem is, what was seen was Canadian troops kicking ass, fighting like true warriors and making every Canadian proud.

One of the best vids I've seen in a long time. About time our cousins to the North get a little credit. Thanks, Holger, it is appreciated.

Loaded Dice,
You're welcome. The Canadians have done a fantastic job in Afghanistan, they've lost I think about 110 valiant young men while the Germans sit up in the north eating dates.
Canada has a lot to be proud of in the efforts of their troops in Afghanistan.

Yeah, as a canuck myself, I can saw that most of us care for the CBC about as much as we care about baseball. The only thing that keeps their ratings up is Hockey Night in Canada, which, did you know, is this neat little deal where no other TV station in the country is allowed to carry hockey games on Saturday night, so we have no choice but to watch them on the 'ceeb.' So... artificial ratings inflation.
But, yeah, absolutely great video. "They're not peacekeepers" - Only guy that was confused about that was the reporter, I guess.
