I have a great deal of respect for the Canadian military (evident in my previous post), but facts are facts. Bullets, Bombs, and Toilet paper cost money. The Canadian government does not supply much to the military and they run short on things.
If they want to pull out they can, the mission for us won't change and we won't leave anytime sooner because of it.

Again Seaver, the accurate assessment is that the US Treasury is already bankrupted and the coming lack of financial ability to purchase anywhere near the 14 million bbls per day of imported petroleum and petro equivalents presently acquired via borrowed funds and consumed, will render "our way of life" as unrecognizeable compared to what we experience today.

US military operations in Afghanistan and in Iraq are a luxury that will be dispensed with, due to economic expediency. Canada and it's military face nothing like the US financial crisis, and they have the option, because they have the natural resources and the income flow from exporting them, to increase their presence in Afghanistan and their overall military spending, without borrowing the money to do it.
