Seems legit.. pretty much sums up the general national attitude towards war & government, really.

HEY!

Thats "Lite".

Suds from the hated giant neighbor to the south.

All would have been forgiven if he had been seen drinking Molson, or Moosehead!

Would it, though?

Molson has been owned by Coors since 2005.. it's American now. Similarly, Tim Horton's is owned by a Brazilian Billionaire.

Moosehead? Maybe. At least I think it's Canadian. It's sold here on the West Coast but it's not particularly popular. I'd rather it be a Sleeman's Honey Brown for a sort of mass market Canadian beer.

He is the most Canadian paratrooper until somebody parachutes in full hockey goalie regalia.

While drinking crappy coffee, riding a moose.

Drinking crappy coffee through a goalie mask while parachuting is really difficult.

Yeah. He is consummately Canadian. Regardless of the brand of beer he guzzles while parachuting.
In contrast -not all who answer the call of duty are able to be THAT Canadian.
