I love Canada <3
somewhatwiseguy
I've seen this reposted at least 12 times and on at least one occasion an ex Canadian special forces guy called bullshit on this one
FlyingRhino
yeah we are significantly less involved than the states in overseas ops
DannyWasNotTHEKarateKid
I mean, it's words on a picture on the internet. It has to be true.
AbstractBettaFish
Arnt "Confirmed" kills, not an actual thing?
gnarphza
Usually it means The shooter claims the kill and someone else says "Yup. I saw it."
TakNoPants
That’s because most of their missions aren’t classified....
MichaelGerardTyson
Sorry I 360 no scoped you eh

Why is this full of spelling errors?

I actually lol'd. Thanks.

Canadian Army guy here, I am sick to death of seeing this stupid post.
Rodeodoc
The Canadian Spec Forces are known by other military groups to be a special kind of crazy and are feared by others.

Having 100 Top Ranking Members makes me question the ranking system for Al Quaida in general.
WoopDeFrickenDoo
Right? And just imagine finally breaking into the Top100 only to get shot in the head by a Canadian the next day.
balmut
Isn't it lots of individual cells? Also you kill a leader, someone gets a promotion and added to the list of ranking members...
pugs911
Like the orcs from Shadow of Mordor
pugs911
* Uruks?
girlpants
I'm pretty sure that the list isn't made by Al Qaeda. Why would they draw up a hit list and hand it to the westerners?
abuildingsea
Who said they make the list?
somenerandom
For the lulz , obviously
iamsosickofanotherusername
That's just because there is so much turn over.....not like McD's turnover but death turnover.

Lol... "Sorry, Asad Al-bin, I only needed this terrorist gig to get me through college; I'm going to work for Apple now"

Canada has never lost a war
bedeicusprime
The bore war we fought with England, I guess we might not have been a country yet tho.
DoomAndThenSum
Not at that point
acmeyakko
G'day eh.
TylerStark
We some sort of Australian Canadians?
acmeyakko
Take off.
vauhtihirmu
Is everyone belonging to a terrorist organization a terrorist, even if they've ever only fought a guerrilla war with non-terroristic tactic?
gnarphza
Yes. Even if your job was being secretary because by your assistance they could do what they do. Legally you are an accessory to the crime.
theFIRSTroman
100 top leaders? Bullshit, did you round up to the nearest 100?
GangleaderX
Gotta be honest as a Canadian I did not know that
Noodlesaregood1
Can US vets join Canadian military ?
JackBurtonME
If you aren't too busy bombing us, sure :-)
Noodlesaregood1
I'm out you probably referring to the Army they love friendly fire I was a Marine they shot at us too
csb2018
Sorry! And have a nice day!
alexandurp
They were caught on camera accidentally by a journalist in Afghanistan before our prime minister knew they were there. Or so the story goes.

JTF2 will fuck your shit up
drcoolhands
What happened to JTF1? On a side note, look up JTFX.
GettinSprucy
And sooooo politely
OHHNOES
Bullshit. The seals alone have something like 270 something, that doesn't take into account the other US special forces.
TylerStark
Easy Eagle boy, you're not the best at everything.
EmberFiretail
This infographic is bullshit, it gets called out every time it's fucking posted
OHHNOES
Also most of their missions are black ops so most of their kills aren't even accounted for.
redsmerf
Key words here are "confirmed kills." Most special forces wont admit to operations they were on, or kills that were made
Funkyseabiscuit
You can tell how many confirmed kills Canada have by the amount of apologies being thrown around on the battlefield.
whyiseverythingupsidedown
Most Special Forces operate on the basis of "we were never there" or the "this is a fly over, we are not dropping in".
Whitetiger7654
This.
EricFromAccounts
In Canada it's considered incredibly rude to not tell the whole truth. They save millions of $ in court costs by never swearing oaths
themanunew
I should think that it's incredibly rude not to tell the whole truth anywhere in the world. What the fuck do we have that makes it worse?
BewareTheIceSpiders
What ? I swore oaths many times in Canadian courts. I even had to swear oaths before signing some documents.
TylerStark
By the same assumption, who is to say how many JFT2 kills were counted.
TylerStark
JTF2*
HutchTheClutch
It's interesting cause I only know of this team because of Rainbow 6. Without that I'd have thought there wasn't a Canadian special forces
TylerStark
Why would you want your special team to be famous? Seems to be a good idea to fly under the radar
Lordbittious
Fun fact. The canadian special forces unit was so secretive that the only reason we know of them today are because they were mistaken (1/2)
Lordbittious
For american navy seals. Canada was then forced to publicly recognize them to resolve the confusion. (2/2)
themanunew
To be fair, most of us don't know it ourselves and the few that do also get their knowledge from Rainbow Six.
InvadingYourSpaces
If you have military friends, you knew about them, but that's about it. There may be even higher ranked/specialized groups.
WitnessedSomeTimeAgo
How does this kind of stuff add up? Because Navy Seal Chris Kyle had 160 confirmed kills alone by the Pentagon, but estimated twice that.
Gantzz321
killing unarmed kids is not the same as ranked members of the enemy
Canofwhupass
Maybe he killed one or two that was not a terrorist
WitnessedSomeTimeAgo
I'm not arguing that the Canadian Special Forces DONT hold the record, I'm just wondering what their record is, and how it's so high.
19931117
Simple they lay a trap of delicious poutine then kill them once they are finished eating it its the polite thing to do
KissMyGeek
We take "Kill them with kindness" to a whole new level.
whyiseverythingupsidedown
A lot of special forces kills "technically" never happened - because they "were never actually operating in the area".
WitnessedSomeTimeAgo
Gotcha. So that would make the Canadian special forces the nicest military in the world for reporting their kills, eh?
Camelspotting
"We killed this bad dude living in a cave, I don't think anyone cares, sorry."
whyiseverythingupsidedown
I guess you could look at it that way. "We killed that guy, Sorry" rest of special forces community "the fuck, Canada? Shhhhhh."
RancidRance
In WW1 the Germans feared the Canadian forces so much that the kept tabs on the movement of Canadian troops so they could be prepared.
EmberFiretail
That's because the UK used Canadians as cannon fodder...If the Canadians where coming, it meant everybody else was after them 1\2
EmberFiretail
Had nothing to do with fearing them more then any other soldier....I swear Canadians are just as bad with the military rifle jerk as us.
RancidRance
I'm from the UK...
EmberFiretail
Sorry, tried of this post and the stupid circle jerk around it.
theuberkevlar
Yes, it's called strategy.
RancidRance
What I'm saying is they kept tabs on them more so than other units. One German unit realised they were facing Canadians over regular British
RancidRance
Typo: Once a German Unit
RancidRance
Troops, they would request more defences. The Canadians were mainly used as shock troops due to their effectiveness.
GapingAnalCavity
To be fair. The Canadian government cheats by telling their special forces that Al Qaida blew up a microbrewery. No wonder they get results.
Rodeodoc
And AlQaida said hockey players are fairies. That got them motivated.
batmobile2
No they blew up the hockey arena
GapingAnalCavity
Whoah whoah whoah, Satan. That's like telling a German you deleted his train simulator savegame.
KickRocksYaHoser
I'd fucking go 80 in his 50 if this happened bud

This shit has me dying...sorry for swearing bud
Blacole1985
Do the Canadians know?
Toderdj
Canadian here, used to hang out with a JTF2 guy. One time his brother in law tried to fight him. The restraint, you could see it.
Krakelin
dubious. they're not at all allowed to talk about it to anyone
Deafmute13
We, in fact, do not. This is news to me. I thought we had mostly support roles. Sorry to everyone involved.
mirria
if you hear anything about JTF-2 kicking ass, that's us.
fistermatic5000
i ran across a couple of canadian units during one of my deployments. and i thought the irish had a drinking problem.
ivoryashes
Some of us do, but I would imagine most don't, since most don't think about our military and it isn't really reported on in Canada.
ZoidbergIsGreat
Yes. It's just not a topic that tends to come up much.

Istarix
Generally speaking, no. JTF2 (canadian spec forces) actually operate with a degree of secrecy and discretion. Unlike the less effective 1/2
Rictavius
BRITISH SAS: *Teardrop* that's mah boy!
Istarix
American special forces, who have been too busy making action movies and writing "tell all" book to be any damn use in the war on terror...
MV50
Seriously though not even the politicians know much about JFT2. They just do what needs to be done!
Pooroldrichard
1) US SF don't release the classified info needed to substrate that claim. 2) There are less bad guys to kill when your air force bombs them
DHR000x
They also have a carrier ship, we should tell them.
lizlemmler
Isn't that just a polar bear on a rapidly melting ice raft?
WhoYouGonnaCallGhostNappa
Yeah but it's a small one
MisterLemons
That's like saying a bomber on the moon is slightly less useful than the bigger one.
usernameofsomekind
I had no idea. Sorry.
JackOfSomeTradesAndMasterOfOne
It's kept out of the news, but not secret. http://www.forces.gc.ca/en/operations-special-forces/jtf2-myths.page
JackOfSomeTradesAndMasterOfOne
...sort of. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2016/06/26/jtf2-is-jewel-in-the-crown-of-canadas-special-forces.html
seano96x
Probably not because it's a load of shit. Canada's entire military is less than the number of special forces the US has...
pugs911
So we're more effective and we don't waste money on military spending?
seano96x
No, the point is that the "facts" on the post aren't true.
TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsTheBabyAteMyDingo
Let me guess, you're american?
seano96x
Yup, but that's besides the point, it's more likely that nations like Russia and the U.K. Also have more "confirmed kills" than Canada too.
Yorou
Love your alternative fact
seano96x
Canada's military is 50,000 strong , the Navy SEALS alone have over 8000 men...
seano96x
Canada's army rather*
ZharTheMad
Well then I guess the SEALS need to get their shit together. A few Canadians are making them look bad... ????
seano96x
Just because it's posted on a poorly formatted meme on imgur it doesn't make it true...
AbsolutelyNotTheNSA
And just like that. You've thrown it right back at him. Play of the fricking game mate!
