With all the news recently, I missed this:
"We're not the public service of __________," he said. "We're not just another department. We are the ___________ Forces, and our job is to be able to kill people."Fill in the gaps with the name of a country and then check here to see if you were right.

No, he's not. The military is in the public service of US, the people of Canada, and they are answerable to Parliament. Their job is to do what they're told (and also to be able to kill people).

Don't know where you found the info, but would you point to the relevent section in the National Defence Act?
