They are being graded in case the owners of the medical places ever need any spare parts. Surprise you missed that memo too., oh wait, no I'm not surprised really.
Look a tad south to get an idea on the refugee crisis in the eu, libyas' leader kept a lid on clans and controlled the flow of africans wanting to head north til the west figured they could do a better job. Assad looking at husseins' execution in iraq and gaddafis' in libya decided to call 911 which rings in moscow from syria. A tally of corpses and destruction in iraq, libya and syria leaves putin far short of earning a refugee generators badge. In democratic terms putin is the only guy with an invitation to enter syria n' he had nothing to do with trump battling his nato partner but I doubt it saddens him.
Well I think Putin benefits from the European backlash to increased immigration. Autocrats win when that happens. I read somewhere that that was one reason why Putin got involved in Syria. So that Assad would win. So that he would have more autocrats in power around the world, just like him. He also is for climate change which is causing massive refugees from Africa. People are desperate.
Hey nitwit. We've been in Iraq for a while now. Check your facts. And don't buy the training and guidance shtick that the boy wonder is spewing. We've been engaged in some serious battles with ISIS.

I just realized I used engaged twice in the same sentence. Egads.
Just in time for editing.
Chretien kept us out of Cheney's war in Iraq. We've had a training role with the Khurdish soldiers fighting ISIS. But Harper would have had us in Iraq for 11 years before that when there was tons of casualties on both sides (us and partners vs. former Bathists and all). We were lucky the liberals were in power and not Harper. Very lucky.
Has Canada mishandled its relationship with Saudi Arabia? Yes

Wasn't there also a Chretien family business connections in France that had contracts in Iraq after Desert storm that was later discovered is a big reason that he was adamant about not allowing Canada to join Desert storm 2?

We train em' and erdogan kills em', why are we training soldiers to fight against our nato partner?

Despite The Feud, Canada Remains Complicit In Saudi Arabia’s Abuses
Canada shouldn't be seen as a country daring to take the first step against Saudi Arabia, but rather as a bully's friend who said the wrong thing.

I'm wondering if JT should take a family vacation to SA to patch things up.... He could impress them by dressing up as Sinbad or Ali Baba
No, Canada didn't go into Iraq because he knew 9/11 was a bullshit story.
9 11 conspiracy The 5th Estate, Reputable Canadian journalism show exposes Holes in official story
Interesting video to ponder however the invasion of iraq remains a poser, what was in it for america, I always felt iraqi scuds capable of striking isreal be the prime reason for the wmd bs.
Sure. That. And also Saddam Hussein was giving money to the families of Palestinian terrorists if I recall correctly. But mostly it was PNAC wanting to act out their fantasies and fight the war in Iraq they didn't fight 10 years before. Saddam was dangerous. What he did to the Kurds and the swamp people of Iraq were war crimes. Cheney, et all, came of age where the US invaded and deposed people. They really did think it would be a cakewalk. Afghanistan was under control till Bush invaded Iraq and some Iraqis fought back successfully. The Taliban took inspiration from the former bathists. And then ISIS came along. I don't like thinking about strongman like Saddam Hussein. Or theocracies. And how the West (US) seems to be stepping back from encouraging democracy abroad right now.
Just the fact that u.s. hawks had to manufacture an excuse to invade iraq leaves no doubt regime change was first of mind it's just my opinion that scuds spooked isrealis prompting rummies shock and awe.
You failed to comment on canada training kurds to battle a nato partner.

$$$$ in natural resources. Getting rid of the locals increases the bottom line for the shareholders of big oil. The invasion took place in 1991, after 9/11 it was an escalation where the civilians were the target, and they still are.
Kurds go with who had the money and the weapons. They will surrender to the Syrian Govt in exchange for protection from NATO forces. So far they are trained by Israel as that is their base for the shit they are pulling in Iran. (trying too, it hasn't been working out very well in reality)
Will Saudi-Canadian conflict affect Montreal health care?
http://globalnews.ca/news/4392346/will-saudi-canadian-conflict-affect-montreal-health-care/
A new online petition penned by a nurse working at the McGill University Health Centre alleges there could be terrible consequences if medical students from Saudi Arabia are forced to leave Canada.
“It would be catastrophic if all the Saudi medical residents were to leave as it would strain our health system, which is already struggling with patient volumes,” reads the petition written by Megan Shelton
I had no idea that Canada was so dependent on Saudi Arabia for it's Health Care. I understood Nova Scotia being under a strain because I imagine it would be a hardship place to work and not many Docs from other provinces would want to practice there.
But Montreal? That is one of Canada's premier cities.
