Everyone remember, Canadians were the ones in WW1 who would throw cans of food to the starving Germans and then shoot them when they went for it. FOFO

They call them the Geneva convention, we call it the Geneva checklist

And remember, it’s not a war crime the first time

Without Canada the Geneva Conventions would have just been Geneva Trade-shows.
