Thankyou, so its basically to heighten the sense of fear and to drum up more recruits who will step into battle unknowingly poisoning themselves with Depleted Uranium, or to continue what the powers that a perpetual war with the middle east those "evil" arab countries.
its good to know that we do have a military presence in canada but i find it unnecessary for them to be a strong presence in public. id rather see the tax dollars going to helping the poor instead of building tanks for war.
Secondly the military firemen didnt have any miltarised police powers. The question must surely be raised if harper intends to have a permanent military presence on the streets, how long after the next "terrorist: attack does he and other politicians then impose martial law. Like I said this just seems like a blatant attempt at conditioning people, if I saw this on the streets of england i would be living in fear also.
So I'm driving down Knight Street in Vancouver the other day (long residential/truck route in East Van), and I saw one of these driving down the street:There were 2 recruitment Vans driving with it. It was the first time in my life that I actually felt a little proud of being Canadian. This won't seem like a big deal to the Americans on the board, but we never see stuff like this on the streets. Whenever I go to Seattle I always see tons of military vehicles on the roads. People always make fun of Canada's military, and I honestly didn't think we even had stuff like this. We always see on our military on the news in Afghanistan or whatever, but this was the first time I've ever actually seen them at home. I hope Harper keeps his promise and makes the military more visible in major Canadain cities. It's nice to see where my tax dollars are going.Thats pimp, Ive noticed alot more people wearing army pattern clothing, maybe they soldiers!
