    I didn’t realize Canadians had a reputation for anger. War crimes, yes. But they are conducted in the most calm and businesslike manner possible.

      Then you’ve never seen a hockey game, timmies drive thru, alberta rodeo, toronto traffic (omfg the road rage).

      You’d be surprised the amount of rage they got bottled up

    Thanks to De Gaulle, “Humble” is not the word I would use to describe us, the French nation 🤣 .

        Isn’t American doctrine incredibly flexible? Maybe our rules of engagement are fairly strict, but commanders have a lot of choice in how they achieve objectives.

      The are many words that I would use to describe the French, some more flattering than others, but humble would definitely not be among them.

    OBJECTION! Norway is just a colonial province of Denmark, which, for tax purposes only, appear to be a separate country, thus I must demand that Danes be recognized as both sober and discreet.
