Also, on some joint exercises, it is not uncommon for Canadian regular army to defeat US Army Rangers. Where we would get our asses handed to us would be when armor is introduced. While we have upgraded to Leopard II, they are no competition for the M1 Abrams. We do have LAVs, (we make them), but that is not enough.

Let's face it, Canada is dependent on the USA to defend us. That does not mean that our small forces are not competent and fight above their weight.




No he made it known our entire military would loose to theirs. And sure skill and as he put it better discipline take you to the next weight class maybe a few. But at least 500k hunters in MN means only 15% would have to show up to make it a fair fight, and being shot in the pecker for taking a piss in my Great Uncles back 40 with a .270 AI at 500 yards would be a hit below the belt especially for Fire members lol
