Bilal - your argument is very weak. You should think it through to its logical inevitabilities.
FIRST there is a HUGE difference between innocent, non-combatants in Canada VS armed, soldiers. Do not compare the two - they are literally worlds apart. So, your assumptions that follow fail (eg. "...having such low regard..." (which is a strange comment actually).
SECOND - it is my RIGHT as a Canadian, under our Charter, to peacefully and conscientiously object to issues regarding foreign policy - even health care reform. Do NOT think that being "Canadian" is to cheerlead blindly - rather, it is to THINK clearly. LAST - if a Muslim army invaded, I'd be on the frontline as I always have been. PEACE
