Should Canada have conscription?

[Steve Bob]

100 push ups and then run around the parade square 25 times with this rifle held over your head, you'll feel much better."

Don't forget the buckets of sand on each end of that rifle. (I have seen it in person. And luckily it wasn't me!)

Guessing either you served in the CAF, or your kids played strange games at birthday parties.

[oldtrucker]

Bsuds service is vastly more baddazz than CAF

Actually USN.

How about we start with ever tent city citizen instead, then move to the activists.

are you volunteering also?

Not sure you are understanding what conscription means.

[Richadio]

compulsory enrollment of persons especially for military service : draft. During the war the armed forces were heavily dependent on conscription.

I say, if some tyrant dictator - wanted to attack Canada, this country should be FREE to send
as many men into the meat grinder - for as long as it takes. Even if the meat grinder turns into a genocide.

• If people flee the country to avoid the meat grinder, should they be jailed if they're caught? I say yes - jail the traitors.

In regards for Middle Easterners, the EU considers fleeing from conscription a legitimate reason to be granted asylum, but not for Ukrainians.

So wait - is that true? European countries will not allow Ukie men into their country if the Ukie man wants to avoid the meat grinder? Doesn't that sound like European countries are sadistic and wicked? As one youtuber said - "Kinda tells exactly what this war is all about."

Are you sending in your name to Justine to be put on the first to call list? Asking for a friend.

Just a few months ago that now seems like a lifetime ago, Canadians were all rah rah, let’s go kick Ruskie.*bleep*.

Now, very quiet and thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Gosh and gee, what was it that now peeps are reconsidering? Could it be that they now see the war betwixt Russia and Ukraine has become nothing more than a cash grab from unwilling taxpayers funding into the pockets of those handling the transactions?

Some politicians acting as go-betweens getting mighty wealthy as the war drags on and on. One in particular who has seen unexplained wealth grow from 10 million to almost 100 million in that timespan.

Nah. Couldn’t be that.

It's true, his personal budget is balancing itself!

Meanwhile, our armed forced are mere shadows of their former might. I feel so sorry for those who offer their lives to protect us, and then they get kicked in the nards by the Niberals.

I can't blame young folks for not considering the armed forces, given the underfunded mess they've become in the last 8 years. Conscription may be the only option, if we're ever to gain any strength in the future.

if you believe in conscription, Do you think Canada should send illegal Ukrainians to the Zelly meat grinder?
Poland wants to.

Or do you agree with Germany and Hungary that told Zelly to go to hell?

I SAY SEND EVERY LAST ILLEGAL UKIE BACK TO UKRAINE'S DEMOCRACY WHERE THEY BELONG.



Beautiful - these beautiful guys believe in conscription and they want the Ukrainians back on Ukie soil where they belong.
No enjoying life in Europe for you, Ukie men.

Military service would be a very good learning experience for a lot of people.

Might stop some of the me, me, whining!

So let me get this straight, because I don't know much about WW2. But the Russians were fighting for us
in WW2 and 30,000,000 million of them were killed, fighting for us.

Now our government gives a standing ovation to the guy - the NAZI - who was fighting against us and against the Russians?

And those same monkeys in the government want to "force" guys into the army?

"fighting for us" ???? Russia was invaded, as a result they were fighting the Germans for themselves. Even the term "fighting with us" meaning they were an ally, is pushing it a bit.

Prior to Germany making the fatal mistake of invading Russia in June 1941, Russia and Germany were allies. Doing so is a perfect example of biting off more than you can chew.

If you want to talk about who was "fighting for 'us' " (if "us" is defined as the countries that were invaded and needed help from countries that were not invaded, there are lots, but Russia was fighting against invaders to their country).

I would suggest that since Canada was not invaded we really shouldn't be included in "us" as nobody fought "for" us. We were one of many allies that fought against rogue countries that had the idea they could take over other countries, through war.

If you are saying "us" defines "allies", yes the Russians were fighting against the same enemy as we were.

As for acknowledging the bravery of a Nazi soldier in the House of Commons, that's just another boondoggle by the JT Clown (I guess) bus, helping to proliferate the world's image of Canadians as complete buffoons.

I'm just waiting for Canada to apologize to India for them murdering a Canadian on Canadian soil,,, stay tuned.

We were one of many allies

Thanks for clearing that up. Not us. Just allies. Good.

"George W. Bush's grandfather helped finance the Nazi Party.
Chrystia Freeland's grandfather worked for the Nazi party.
And these two have the power - if they wanted to (because they own your body)
these two clowns can force people into the army, into a war, but some 98 year old Ukie named Hunka who decided to go against the corrupt Soviet Union government that genocided six million of his Ukrainians in the 1930s - now he's a MONSTER.

It never stops amazing me.

Watch War Pig Vonder Lying - in the first thirteen stomach turning seconds say "Ukrainians are fighting for us"
and it's the Ukrainians who killed 14,000 Russian speaking people in their own country in 2014. How could that be for us?

So how could Ukrainians be fighting for us now, and when Canadians were actually dying in WW2,
how could the Russians not be fighting for us?

I think you're lying like vonder Lying.

Getting I will reiterate that conscription isn’t a bad thing if it was to defend our own land.

So many young people would benefit from the learning experience and might set them into careers never dreamed of before.

This is such a better alternative to pine-needle basket weaving studies or all the feel-good, pointless and directionless avenues that are offered up as career paths now, imo.

How many of those youngsters might be diverted from the druggy lifestlyle, shopping cart pushing, sleeping in alley or doorfront recesses?

We won’t know the answer ever, until a sea change happens, which means a change in govt from one that promotes, financially supports and condones a wastrel type life.

I'd be thinking conscription would be implemented if Canada itself was attacked.

If another NATO country was attacked and by NATO's standards all NATO countries are attacked and countries are supposed to come to their aid, Canada included. How about another UN sanctioned intervention like Korea or Kosovo, Afghanistan?
Smaller interventions, I suspect volunteer sign up is sufficient.

Now, national service, where every young person 18-22 is expected to put in 2 years service in a branch of the armed forces is a great idea. Exemptions though? Likely no shortage of twinkies that will try to cop out.
