We Support Our Troops!
Things in Afghanistan are really heating up, as are things here, politically speaking. Fortunately, public support for our troops to remain in Afghanistan is currently high. A recent poll indicates that support in Quebec has even risen 10%, which is good news considering the "VanDoos" (the 22nd Regiment out of CFB Valcartier are scheduled to deploy in February 2007). At the last day of The Ex, I stopped at the military's exhibit to check out the banners they had set up for civilians to sign, with the intention of sending these banners to the troops. I was overwhelmed with the sight of them and the messages written thereon. What are your thoughts?

Me again!
As anti-war as I am - what I do understand is bravery, and I have to say I admire and appreciate it.
I know I would be the first one to pick up arms if my country was invaded, occupied or otherwise threatened and so I do get this.
I just hope we aren't leaving our own national security too thin by continuing to deploy to Afghanistan.
The men and women over there do need to understand that the entire country wants everyone of them home safe - even if it does mean that some of us wish they never went in the first place.
ciao bella
