Explanation: Despite the American perception of Canadians as mild and polite folk, in all of the wars of the 20th century they participated in, Canadians went hard as fuck. Sometimes admirably so (the 'bite-and-hold' tactic of WW1, their conduct killin' Nazis in WW2, especially exceeding their goals taking Juno Beach on D-Day), sometimes... frighteningly so (pretending to gift enemy Germans in WW1 tins of food, only to toss grenades instead; the war crimes in Somalia which led to Canada itself deciding its military culture was out of control and needed massive reform)

Can confirm. I commit to live and die as a Canadian. If the ever US invades or annexes any part of this country, I will still live and die as a Canadian. And in that case, one way or another, I'll make absolutely sure the US feels plenty sorry about it when I die as a Canadian. We may not be the world's apex predator, but we will defend ourselves, very aggressively, and we will make sure it hurts. We are no threat to anyone unless you are threatening us. Attack this porcupine at your own risk.
