The government is also there for its soldiers. They have a parade for all the dead soldiers along the 'Highway of Heroes" with patriots waving Canadian flags at every overpass.

He was fired from the military, even though he could still work at an office desk, because he was not 'combat ready! Presumably, the meager pension will be a lot less than his salary. The workers are cannon fodder for the capitalist wars! John Ayers
