    I remember the 20 guys on my hockey team phoning the British Consolate in Ottawa to try to sign up to fight for our Queen. The secretary said we'd have to wait in England for 6 months before we could sign up. We knew it would be over by then but, if needed, we will always be there. God Save the Queen from Canada.

      I'm Canadian and I think it's undemocratic that our head of state is an unelected dynastic monarch who has no real qualification other than a 'birthright'. The governor general has interfered with the will of the people; proroguing parliament and changing how politics work in Canada. I don't understand why national pride is wrapped up with this anachronistic symbol of imperialism and in my opinion; ignorance. I don't support what the batenburgs or whatever have done in India, China, the Caribbean and Canada. When Canada went to war in WW1 Canadian troops were used as cannon fodder. They also killed princess Diana when she tried to break away.

We also have a permanent deployment of 2k troops in the Falklands, type 26 which would blow anything Argentina has out of the water. The British Army may also be small and a little underequipped but has more than enough to secure the islands.
      On the other hand Argentina has a navy of about three fishing patrol boats, no amphibious vehicles, most of their planes date back at least 40 years.

Brits eventually left the place totally as i mentioned above, and at some point when carving up "spains territory" the argentines assumed that it must belong to them now. But it had always been british since 1690. Just because it was not being used does not mean you can take it lol. The reason the argentines tried to take the island for a second time in the falklands war was actually their dictator trying to distract from his unpopularity and a possible revolution by the people to overthrow him. He figured britain wont care enough to go to war over the island and he can pass it off as a success for a new argentine empire and show him as a strong leader they shud want to remain in power. well we know how that panned out BUT it wasnt the dumbest idea initially, i guess he had bad intel on britain which lead him to think they wont fight. Very risky seeing as the royal navy then was much larger than it is nowdays and the reputation it had.

    The 88th Foot embarked in late 1806 on ships to take part in the secret attack on Buenos Aires. They languished on board for a month in Falmouth Harbour, then sailed as part of the convoy to Cape Town. There the troops were not allowed to go ashore. After some time they sailed, via St. Helena, to the Plate estuary, and in July 1807 attacked Buenos Aires
