on second thought, today is canadian cannon fodder day, and i don't expect them to be open. we're shutting down in seconds...

ww1 was awful for canada, and ww2 was only better in the sense that we pushed back a little. every time that the brits needed to march some people into the ocean, they picked the canadian regiments. we were the most expendable, and the most wasted.

some historians will try to save face on this. we were great soldiers. we were brave! we defined ourselves...

this is nonsense.

we were ritually slaughtered. by the thousand...

my favourite fact about world war one was that it preceded the franchise for workers. lest we forget? we choose not to remember this. but, your relatives that died for democracy in the great war were actually probably unable to vote for the people that slaughtered them.

and, that is what can never happen again.
