No news is NOT good news.
This year has been the deadliest by far.

Then again, there are fewer USAsian soldiers in Afghanistan shooting at them these days.

So far, Canada has had eight fatalities, four of which were killed by US friendly fire...

It IS affecting Canadians, too...this latest poor bastard was from my old regiment - condolances to his family and other loves ones...may he rest in peace...
