It's true it's true.
We spend less on our military then France, UK, Germany, Japan, Israel, USA and most other nations on the planet.
But we are the safest nation on the planet..........no one would dare invade us!
Who can boast spending less then us on its military (and yet have so much natural resources and valuable territory that people would love to take from us)......and yet be as safe as we are from invasion? No one.
Canada is #1 hands down.
Who can argue that point? |  O' Canada...

Country:  | Efficient and armed forces are words that dont tend to go together very well as waste is notorious with all armed services.
As for Effectiveness at the moment and the forseable future it has to be the USA but as with all major world powers eventually another nation will take the lead.
I would say next would be the Swiss. How would you fancy going hand to hand with a guy wearing a skirt and yellow pom poms just to get to the Pope.

Canada is super cool. Montreal, Windsor, Vitoria, Toronto have all tasted my brain cells.

The only fear I have of Canada is that they belay the inevitable and resist the "American" Womb. North American Hemispheric Alliance!
Brothers Unite and prepare the smite on lesser fiends!
Canada is beyond super most, extra - cool!

Everyone one that has stepped onto a battle field for any amount of time knows that friendly fire happens......it's a fact of war.

It may have changed now but when I did my time we always thought that the US Forces were to specialized with such trades or MOC's as Panel remover or prop guy and one guy for air systems and one for Hydraulics it may have changed but those trades are encompassed by Fitter and Rigger or Airframe and Air Engine up here . Maybe it was just bravado but we tended to think our aircraft were better maintained . We don't have a MOC of Crew Chief or at least didn't
