6 More Killed

Six Canadians killed today along with their Afghan interpreter. I feel so bad for their parents, siblings, spouses and children. I'm tired of reporting this kind of news.

Why are we there, again?

The fact that we can't get any of our NATO allies to commit to replacing our guys speaks volumes. The Canadians are a bunch of sitting ducks down there in Kandahar and no other government is going to agree to send their soldiers into such a hopelessly dangerous situation. We're committed to 2009 so I guess we have to stay, but not a day more.

Next month the contingent from Quebec will be going over. When Quebecois guys start dying, oh boy, is the domestic situation going to get ugly.
