Same over here .... even the Quebecois, who are more opposed to the war than any other Canadians, turn out in their thousands to cheer the men and women of the Van Doos as they leave for Kandahar. But who is doing the fighting over there? Check this out: Number of KIA by country: Australia, 11; Czech, 3; Denmark, 24; Estonia, 4; Finland, 1; France, 28; Germany, 33; Hungary, 2; Italy, 15; Latvia, 3; Lithuania, 1; Netherlands, 19; Norway, 4; Poland, 9; Portugal, 2; Romania, 11; S. Korea, 1; Spain, 25; Sweden, 2; Turkey, 2 .... and; Canada, 125; UK, 188; US, 749 ... now, who the eff is doing all the fighting over there? Canada's combat commitment in Afghanistan ends in 2011; and it won't be extended. We've had enough ... Canada will honour its commitment until the end of 2011 (god knows how many more lives that will cost); but, after that, it's someone else's turn.
