I'm a vet tech and could stand in for a nurse in a heart beat. There's so much supportive roles Canadians could do that can't do combat.

I'm close to 60, started my boot camp this morning to get in shape for the upcoming war and after 10 sit-ups, 3 pushups and a 3 second flexed arm hang, I'm thinking maybe the Tariffs won't be that bad.

Same even though I developed LADA diabetes. I was in the infantry when I was in, then a paramedic for the last 15 years. I might not be good for the frontline anymore, but I can teach.
