As always, Canada will now bury its war dead, just as the rest of the world, as always, will forget its sacrifice, just as it always forgets nearly everything Canada ever does. It seems that Canada's historic mission is to come to the selfless aid both of its friends and of complete strangers, and then, once the crisis is over, to be well and truly

Canadians piss on war memorials. Talk about that.

Ya, when I heard that I was pretty, pardon the pun, pissed off. I can't say it is unexpected. Public drunkeness leads to public urination, and if the nearest object is a war memorial, well that's all they care about. I'm sure those bastards couldn't tell you a damn thing about the sacrifices made on their behalf, even when sober.

How frustratin to see the good work be undone by the technologically enhanced "ME" generation. Bubble individualism - it sucks.
