So Canada wins - They're an ornery bunch them Canadians.

We STILL only have those bright green uniforms? You'd think that after nearly 10 years of desert warfare...we'd be providing proper uniforms to our troops...

I'm thinking we should go with the day-glow orange - then maybe people will stop killing us with "Friendly Fire"

Fixed that for ya'. Frankly, I have a hard time figuring why they keep doing that, after all we're (mostly) not black, and we're not carrying Skittles.

Also, I'd make a joke about overweight, out of shape Yankees at this point, but that would just be rubbing salt on it.

This is such an apt metaphor for modern human life.

Canada Über Alles!!!

Naah, we'd just spend all our time apologizing for being too powerful.>> ^messenger:

Canada Über Alles!!!

Yes! We are also the most humble! We are the kings and queens of humbility!!!

You can buy the DLC from EA for $10.99; it has 3 new camo uniforms and shitty weapons no one cares about.

Are those pom-poms on the top of their berets?

That would be the Royal Highland Fusiliers. Like most odd things in the military, it has a proud, storied, and impressive history.

The Canadian military does have desert uniforms (although for the first year or two of the WOT, they didn't). This video's apparently filmed in the US, too, not in Afghanistan, which is probably why they're wearing green.

So what was prize? Wouldn't it be cool if they bet each other's countries and we could all be Canadian, just like that? Yeah, that would be real cool, eh? Or get Harper and Obama to have matches in both DC and Toronto. It could be North America's Hunger Games. The tiebreaker, if needed, could be in Wasilla, which is practically Russia and therefore neutral territory. We'd have to keep Putin from wanting in on the action, because he would just PWN, eh. Anyway, I'd rather be a Canuck. I've been living off of Super-sized #4s (with a Diet Coke to cancel out the guilt) and Iced Animal Cookies for years and I'm aboot ready for the free heart I could get as a Canadian. And my touk could be used for more than just looking pretty in the mirror at home.

It's spelled toque.

^ Well... I'm still a dumb American. I only spelled it "touk" because I had changed it from "took". Before that I tried "toowk", "tooq", "tewk", "tuke", and "2k", but none of those looked quite right either.
