Running The Expense Clock Of "Canada's War" In Afghanistan

The Afghanistan FUBAR has cost us some $21.7 billions so far.

So, what's an extra $100 million to spend in this wasteful, empty, political exercise meant for absolutely nothing ... right?

Instead of simply getting out of there, therefore saving lives (not putting our men and women at risk) and money? Especially when other NATO partners are simply there for show while our men and women die?

"Canada's war" and "Pentagon North", indeed.

Meanwhile ...

Once again, my fellow Canadians: you wanted it, you now own it.

  1. Not only is it a monumental waste (human, financial, ethical, moral - take your pick) the Tories know it's a waste!

    Cynical, hypocritical sociopaths run this country, and the war in Afghanistan is the best proof of that in recent years.

    Keep up the good work!
