Canada? We've been in a bunch of fights but haven't picked them ourselves. Consider the bloody battle for Han Island as an example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisky_War

    Canada was an open participant in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan, and a clandestine participant in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, which kinda sounds like picking a fight to me.

    I don't have an answer for Afghanistan. We suck. Iraq? My understanding is that we wouldn't go without a UN resolution which was not forthcoming. We have officers posted in other countries for various exchanges and they fought with their host countries. So we had a few hundred people there in various roles. I don't know about the clandestine participant.

    The Inuit might have something to say. The children found in the mass graves by churches can't really speak. Canadians speak English & French. Remind me where England and France are, and what their history is with colonialism.
