    My father and uncle fought in WW2 in Sicily, Italy, and Holland as assault troops with the 1st CDN Inf Div. They had a standing order of take no prisoners unless ordered by an officer. Once the shooting starts no quarter is given. And that included the walking wounded. Just because a soldier is wounded doesn't mean he won't shoot you in the back.

    Hi Alan, if you get to the Imperial War Museum you will see displays of weapons used raiding trenches. They include serrated bayonets/knives, maces, spiked clubs(with 6 inch nails), knuckle-dusters with or without a short knife attached. Basically anything that can be used close-quarters & do a lot of damage with only 1 or 2 blows.

    I think all countries have stories of war that involve NGAF about the enemy, WW1 was so different for all involved, I don't think what they did was necessarily bad, when going against other soldiers that would do the exact same thing given the chance, the Canadians just were the first to act. Even us Aussies, one of the nicest people you'll meet have done some dastardly stuff in war, I think the nicer the country and the harder you push them the more they will react, like me I've never been a violent person, but like most if you fk with those I love you will end up in the ground.

    That WW1 thing was because the kaiser's troops were using serrated bayonets that left wounds that did not heal, so the wounded all died a long, painful death. The Canadians asked nicely but firmly to please go back to straight edge bayonets, and were told that anything goes in war! Don't tell an opponent that you don't care if every wound is death, not if you care about your wounded.

    Canadians first battles in WW1 were against objectives that both the French and English had failed to take. The British more or less explained this away by saying that Canadians had the advantage over the British, because they were not bound by the standards of 'gentlemen' - an excuse they used when bettered or matched by other 'colonial' allies. So at the end of W1 Canadians (in British folklore) were undisciplined, ignored rules and were unnecessarily violent. So WW2 rolls around, and the Canadians are assigned Juno beach. One of the most difficult beaches to deal with, since it has French occupied towns along it. It was spared much of the bombing and bombardment in preparation for the landings, since the allies didn’t want to harm French morale by killing them. So, if we are to assume that the invasion - planned by the British - had decided to invade a 'sensitive' area with a bunch of undisciplined, murderous, psychopaths, it is stranger still that they sent them ashore with virtually no commissioned officers. They went ashore led by NCOs. Because under the Canloan program, Canadian officers had been brought in to lead British troops. Following the initial invasion, the Canadian troops were sent to the Netherlands. Another region where civilians were present everywhere, but the Germans were well entrenched. From the start, it was part military mission, part humanitarian mission. Unlike Germany, where civilian deaths and abuses weren’t considered a problem, the liberation of the Netherlands required great discipline and making sacrifices to drive Germans out in a way that did not endanger civilians. They could not simply blow up a town, they had to fight their way through it street by street to avoid civilian casualties. We are left with the choice that the British chose blood hungry, maniacal troops to take on two of the most sensitive missions of the war - and only after they had seconded their officers to lead British troops. Or possibly that British military intelligence and experience with Canadian troops had shown them to be tough, determined and prepared to make sacrifice. I suspect it is the latter, while the stories of unruly savages were the invention of the British media, which has always - and still does - make excuses about why 'colonial' troops are successful.

    Some little know things of the Canadians : Many Like Grandfather were French Canadian So landing in France was personal The Canadians were the first ones to finish all the objectives in the Normandy beaches And yes they faced the same threats And under heavy losses. 1 in 4 members of the RAF was a Canadian / 10% of Canadians went over seas *1 million from 1939 to 1945 We entered the war on our own accord. We each volunteered. From a country that was not effected by the rest of the war. We sent our own millions of tons of goods to England in ships with our own men Along with goods from America. We built Lancaster bombers And Mosquito fighter/bombers That carried the biggest bombs for each of its class We used more Mine sweepers Than the Germans had mine layers... The Dutch honored my Grandfathers regiment with a brass sign on a bridge into Holland as the first man that gave his live crossing it Many Canadian cities And towns Are sister towns to dutch ones And have parks in the name of each others town/city In Canadians ones You will find Tulips as a sign of freedom of the dutch (Apeldoorn / Burlington) The Killing of German SS prisoners - was wide spread As the SS killed the first wave of Canadians just after Normandy behind a church blindfolded And tied . Each shot in the head 1 by 1 (20 of them) ...Grandpa said the Canadian HQ after a week of no SS told the troops of courtmarshal if found killing prisoners....They simple handed over the SS to the French...And they shot them Grandpa was shot under the collar bone right threw..He got it cleaned up And patched And moved on "I remember getting light headed Firing off a few rounds And the next thing i remember was a man and women dragging me in this basement window" Grandfather did not want to lose his unit/buddies by going to a field hospital 4 hours later under fire he was shot again This time in the leg shattering a bone A dutch couple pulled him in the basement And cut off the bleeding The next Canadian they saw They waved down..Bergen Op Zoom ...... I myself have been to the Philippines And walked the Bataan route of the Americans Swam in the Surigao sea where some of the biggest American sea battles took place All around Manila And other areas Even said a prayer for a American that lost his life in Santo Tomas 1942

    Had family at Ypres in WW1 and other battlefields. Also had family in the Calgary tanks at Dieppe, the Sicily invasion, Italy including Ortona, etc. At Ortona the streets were too narrow for the tanks to support so it was mouseholing and sniping. The Germans were paratroopers so an elite group. The irony is that they were relocated to the waterlogged Netherlands. Given slogging up the east side of Italy was compared to the mud of WW1 trench warfare, the Canucks were quite able to go after the opposition. The German general knew what they were facing from their earlier encounter. The pronunciations are a bit off, e.g. Leo Major is Lay-oh Mah- jeur. Look at the Royal Newfoundland Regt at Beaumont-Hamel in WW1. You are quite right in what you say about actions in wartime vs peace.

    Oh, not going to disagree. War is hell. Has always been so, even when they were "gentlemanly wars" with designated campaign seasons. Trying to put a rule book on what's acceptable when only one side will adhere to it is hamstringing the effectiveness of soldiering. There's no humanity in war so to expect it outside of individual displays from soldier to soldier is a fools practice. You may very well punish a deed that's "crossed a line" but then it's already been crossed at that point hasn't it? You wouldn't want unneedful violence on the innocent not on the front line but to expect a sense of decorum for military forces when there's only a guarantee that one side will follow it, then how do you expect the side experiencing "war crimes" from not dipping their toe into the pond?

    As a Canadian I never really understand all the maple syrup jokes like the ones in the video being reacted to, except to explain it as foreigners needing to make wisecracks but not knowing anything else about Canada besides hockey. Maple syrup is nothing special in Canada - it's a condiment that only some Canadians bother to buy and occasionally put on certain foods. There's a vague awareness that it's a notable national product, but that's about it. Canadians consume vastly more ketchup, mustard and BBQ sauce than they do maple syrup. I probably had it a half dozen times a year growing up in Ontario on the rare occasion my mother felt like making pancakes for breakfast, or if I went out to a breakfast restaurant and got French toast or waffles. I've never purchased a bottle as an adult, and I'm middle-aged - can't justify the expense.

We have a maple syrup reserve (guarded by the federal government) so large that a group of men once pulled a heist on said reserve, stole 10'000 gallons of syrup - 37'500 litres - and it still wasn't even 10% of the total reserve. That is how much maple syrup we have

    I'm a very healthy 75 year old Canadian, strong and overly heathy for my age, as were my parents. My uncle Charlie (he was Irish, we are all Irish) went to England to contribute in WWII, because he got sucked in by the lies the media told. And from there I don't know what he did in WWII. But he must have seen something, because when I was child he told me that the Canadians turned so vicious because they did not want to be there in the first place. Canada is not violent. Canadian people are not violent by nature. The one thing that pisses us off more than anything is being "thrown into a fight". Like cannon fodder. Canadians do not react well to being treated as "cannon fodder". So by that fact alone, the Canadian arrived very angry, not at the enemy, but at the fact that they knew the war was not even a natural human thing. It was a banker's thing. One of these days, the bankers are going to find out the hard way that if they force Canadians to go to war again, the warriors of this nation will not only kill the enemy, we will kill those who forced that unnecessary conflict upon us. Canadians do not want to war. Bankers of earth should respect that demand.

    Being from a heavy military background i can say that modern Soldiers from any NATO country are as qualified as the next in todays world. All NATO militaries practice and have Military Exercises together so often the foot soldier from any one Nation can easily work with an ally on little notice.

    True story. I was a weapons tech for the Canadian Army. I was in 2 service battalion, 4 service battalion and 4 CER (Combat engineer regiment). I was on loan to RCR's and during an off night several of us decided to go shoot some pool. We were in Charleston South Carolina which is a huge naval base. There was about 8 of us. We were having a great time, tipping back a few and the door opened and in walked about 20 sailors. It was a big pool hall with about 30 tables. They were on one side and we were on the other. But one of the sailors decided to take our only piece of cue chalk, which was fine but when it came to returning it, he said he was going to keep it. A big brawl broke out over a piece of chalk. It was 2 against one basically. We cleaned up. Sure, we all took a few shots to the face but we beat them to a pulp. Everyone was kicked out of the hall and we took the brawl to the streets. More sailors showed up and word got to where the RCR's were holed up and they brought the whole battalion. It was an all out war. Both the RCR's and the American sailors got in a lot of trouble the next day. After it was all said and done the Americans called us crazy. Canadians might be polite and kind, but we love to fight. That was in the 80's before cell phones. This became national news in both the US and Canada. The fight became very popular and many of you may have heard about it back in the day.

    Canadians in war are getting bad press IMHO, if you really need to know why Canadians in/during war are like this, read the Book "Vimy" by Pierre Burton. if you think we were bad during WWI & WWII, the reason is in there... read the book, we weren't bad, we just get tired of loosing friends... the Dieppe Raid in WWII shaped and molded Canadians for the long continual fight that was WWII... as a Canadian veteran myself I know the value of esprit de corps.
