Why was it a good thing Canada stayed out of the Iraq 2003 war (10 points)?

Well I can tell you two things well first we didn't have te man power at that time to maintain two wars with the military we had at that time right now we only have one fighting division (1st division) which is maid up of 3 brigades which is 9 battalions of infantry which at that time were all under strength and that's not the whOle army there's a lot of units I'm leaving out but that's are main fighting force and at that time because are government did not care about the military not saying who (liberals) but they hated the military we did not have the equipment to do it are the soldiers they also did not have the funding are support for it plus then Canada was a little mad at the USA is a small factor but now we have a government that cares are are armed forces the consertives with are great leader Stephen Harper oh another reason why is because we knew there were no weapons of mass destruction because Iraq did not have the ability to make any after isreal destroyed there only nuclar plant and we actually did go to Iraq in the officer exchange program over a100 Canadian officers led the colation under American command plus we sent a few navel destroyers Oh and the under strength thing the reason why is because right now it 3battilions to get ready for a tour one in operation one begging training to get ready and one finishing training plus the Canadian military was worn down already so we just couldn't do it
