    I think it causes a bit more than “hurt feelings” when another country publicly says it wants to annex another country.

      There still shouldn’t “be a law” to ban Canadians from serving in an ally’s military. Or from seeking employment wherever one chooses.

        Serving in a foreign military involves swearing loyalty to that foreign country. What happens when that country attacks ours?

        If one wanted to find work as a mercenary providing military skills on contract, that could be a different issue. But that’s not what you’re proposing.

          dude…the head of the PC party while l’il PP moved to AB is a US citizen, as he was when he tried to run for Prime Minister.
          He said he was going to drop his US citizenship.

        It’s called National Security, and that’s one of the reasons no one tells you anything

        If you can’t see(lion) past your own hurt feelings, then obviously you’re just a troll or russobot
