Speaking for the 220 million+ Americans who aren't aware that any Candadian troops are in Afghanistan, let me speak for them--Thank you Canada. Except Quebec. We still hate you Quebec.

As far as I can tell, it seems what happened was the US government investigated the possibility that some of the terrorists entered through Canada and the news reports in those first few days following the attacks on 9/11 took that and ran with it.

I did read, though, that 2 terrorists who were caught had entered through Canada and never boarded the airplanes because of their capture. |

I wouldn't have known the answer to whether terrorists came through Canada, had I been asked before this brouhaha. In my experience, anything that descends from above the 49th to below the 49th is bad news.
