Canada has far too few soldiers. Here's a radical fix — mandatory service (archive.is)

"Sacrifice your life while your family works their asses off to pay for the welfare of foreigners who hate you and your culture!"

Not really a winning slogan.

"Sacrifice your life while your family works their asses off to pay for the welfare of foreigners who hate you and your culture!"

"Also...have you considered MAID?"

I love how "Canadian healthcare" has become a slur. A very important lesson to stop when you're ahead. They should have just coasted on 'everyone has (slow, often bad) healthcare.' But they went right past that to 'we'll fucking kill your ass,' like the utter retards they are.

which explains why the second part of the slogan reads "We're not asking!". Hell looking around I'm more livid than I thought I could be watching how appealing this idea is to pretty much everyone but the people getting screwed the most in this country. Something baby boomers and gen X professionals, new Canadians and old stock retirees or landlords and activists can all agree on, we gotta get rid of those young Canadians before they start getting angry.

"Oh but it's just mandatory civil service" is a refrain I see a lot of. As if 1) it's not a very small step to conscription and 2) press-ganging citizens into what amounts to national prison labor is any better.

Knowing that non-whites won’t allow themselves to be conscripted, the real question is will pozzed western governments actually try to draft only native white men for a war against other white men? Because my money is on several native revolts.

Make citizenship require 2 full years of military service. No exceptions. Weed out the vermin & establish a sense of duty & attachment to newcomers.
Works for me.

the Canadian Armed Forces had 64,461 regular force members and about 23,177 reservists. It hopes to reach targets for the regular force (71,500) and the reserves (30,000) by 2032 to erase the current shortfall of about 13,862 people.

Holy fucking shit. Every single thing about this article is deeply fucking embarrassing.

Trump should troll the shit out of them and say he greatly admires them for paying attention to the very, very, very fine details of a mere 13k troops.

Also, you'd think a simple web search of 'size of US armed forces' would have all the Canadians singing a much different tune. "You know what? Trump was elected. Popular vote, too. He's the voice of the American people, and I look forward to sitting down with him. He's even super attractive. Just an inspiration. Great man."

I'm sad to report that most Canadians have either no sense of scale, the self assurance of an anime nerd who sure he's watched enough naruto to kick ass or both.

Our soldiers know it. We know we can kick US butt on a 4:1 ratio, we're that good and the typical US trooper is that bad. However? We know we're outnumbered more than 10:1 so...

There's US troops (units) that are truly 'world class' but they're few & far between. Most fall into the readiness & capacity of "conscripts" which are fine until the shooting starts...
The US does have a vast cadre of "battle tested" troops and reserves in spite of all that. Those troops, even if at conscript levels are potentially much more dangerous than untested "elites", eh?
Canada's troops are all battle tested. So are our reserves.

Sorry. Not buying it.

To be blunt, Canadian nationalism is hilarious because, uhm...Canadian...

There's no way all those troops are both elite and battle-tested and, even if they were...so?

100k ain't getting shit done.

You're kind of proving OP's point. He said Canadians don't understand scale, and think they're way stronger than they are, and you came back with that your guys are elite...

I said we understand the scale, we're vastly outnumbered and even King David couldn't pull out a military victory with these odds. Leonidas either...

Fortunately it will never come to that. Poilievre will sweep the nation & common sense will return! Hopefully.

In every exercise, joint operation or joint training since 1980? Canada has kicked the butt of every other army they've engaged with. Often on the first day of a 3-day exercise. (They set it up again and ask the Canadians to tone it down, eh? For the last 2 days) USA, UK, France, Germany, Korea? all of them.

We have had troops in harms way for decades, from Yugoslavia to Afghanistan. We cycle the small number of soldiers we have in and out, they're all tested.

After all that is said? We wouldn't stand a chance against a serious US invasion. However keep in mind: The US Army Could Not Defeat Afghanistan In 20 Years ok? They couldn't even occupy the entire nation.

Yeah yeah sure, hardened Canadian warriors marched through a thousand miles of nothing and fought their way through barely-trained militia farmers to burn down a shitty swamp house 200 years ago. Fucking whatever.

What are you going to fight for? Gay crosswalks? Chinese landlords? Being called to selfless suicide when you can no longer work to provide gibs to people who wipe with their hands, if at all? You're a nation of arrogant, delusional liberals that doesn't even want to exist. Frankly, your people probably want to be conquered at this point, which makes it sting all the worse that you were never worth the effort.

Lmao you must be high.

There was a time, like WWI and WWII when the Canadian armed forces were world class. But now, our army, navy and air force are bad jokes compared to what we used to be. There is simply no way you can say, with a straight face, that the average Canadian soldier can fight off enemy combatants at a 4:1 disadvantage unless you're retarded.

In a purely defensive, guerilla war? Yes. We're really good at 'covert ops'.
In WW2 style? Or even Iraq? No.
Of course it will never come to that, most of our army would welcome joining the US, I think. Y'all would just need to be polite about it :>

There's no way there's 64k combat troops north of the border.

Most of those figures include admin and desk jockeys.

I've seen estimates that the actual number of grunts with guns is closer to 5k.

It's interesting. The various EU nations and Canada are experiencing extreme difficulties in actually being able to get enough soldiers and are having cratering recruitment, while still pushing all of the Leftist ideals. Meanwhile, the US is experiencing recording-breaking recruitment numbers under a more nationalist minded leadership.

I am sure there is no connection here.

Whites have been told to hate their identity country, and culture. What a fucking surprise many have no interest in dying for the country that isn't even theirs anymore.

This is a problem all across the West because our governments are all the same left-wing globalist scum. The colonisers won't fight for your country, the left won't fight for your country and the right won't fight for you while you're betraying your country.

They should do what we did to the Irish during the Civil War.

Immigrants come off one boat, sign a paper then go on a bus to Camp SomeCanadianGeneral. Learn English and how to use toilets at bayonet point.

They're talking about conscription service throughout Western countries. Only Sweden has implemented it.

Sweden was fortunate in that it was restoring a conscription system that had been dormant for less than a decade. When the system was restored, all serving field grade officers and generals had served as conscripts themselves. But the restored selective conscription system included major changes: Women were fully integrated (they now make up about 15 percent of conscripts), and Sweden established a long-service professional noncommissioned officer corps, something that had been absent in the Cold War mass army.

The success of Sweden’s selective conscription system has created a virtuous cycle. In an inversion of the paradigm afflicting most NATO countries, service begets service. **Sweden’s Home Guard, a voluntary reserve for territorial defense, has seen recruitment quadruple in early 2024 compared to the same time a year earlier. **Once an aging and socially irrelevant force, the Home Guard is suddenly popular with young Swedes, who have seen restored conscription and Sweden’s new seriousness about national defense as evidence that military service is an honorable and necessary component of citizenship.

Other volunteer auxiliary defense organizations, like the all-women Lotta Corps, have gained proportionately even more new members than the Home Guard. In January, Sweden also restored compulsory civic service, committing municipal rescue workers and critical infrastructure personnel to enhance the country’s official national strategy of societal “total defense.” As Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson bluntly told his country: “Citizenship is not [just] a travel document.”

Given all the rampant ethnic crime in Sweden, I suspect this is going the way of the US, where large organized gangs infiltrated the US military in order to gain access to training and weapons (which they then stole).

Mass immigration just sows division and resentment
