Maybe Korea will be Canada's next major conflict...
Vancouver is within striking range of the DPRK's missile force.
Too bad Obama cancelled the Bush missile defence program that would've protected Canada from such an attack.

Riiiiiiight. Because we really want to start another arms race...
Bart, as much I don't trust Russia as far as I can throw it, the Cold War is over and times have changed. We shouldn't be creating new militarized zones over potential fears from rogue nations that, let's face it, if they ever really started to become so much as a minor threat, America(or Israel) will curb-stomp them so hard they'll breath magma. Preemptive strikes have worked before and rather effectively. I hardly see a missile defense shield as being necessary when there are capable intelligence agencies, the IDF with titanium scrota, the current American military complex and the fact that Iraq was leveled on the ASSUMPTION of having weapons of mass destruction.
Also, this is Canada. The only things I'm worried about here are health care costs for our aging population, the status of the NWP and our Arctic waters, the strength of our military and how not to fuck up the fact that we're outpacing the G8 in growth.
