That's quite ignorant, considering you know next to nothing about Canada.

If I'm not mistaken Canada has 55,000 troops I think. Plus, Canada has always had excellent special forces going back as far as WW2 I believe, when they took out the artillery on D-Day by climbing a sheer cliff to get to them.
Actually it dates back to WW1, when Canada:
1. Made the first poison gas attack at Ypres
2. Won the battle through mud at Passchendaele
3. let's not forget the glorious victory of Vimy Ridge

And I'm pretty sure we have more than 55,000 troops, over 600 000 Canadians served in WW1 alone (although that includes other miltary serivces such as the Navy), and that was over 80 years ago.
