Whatever form it comes in -- drafting, aggressive recruitment efforts, voluntary enlistment -- a whole lot of Canadians of different ethnicities will be sent to the front lines if the Russia-Ukraine war expands to a much larger region in Europe. That's essentially what 68style is alluding to.

I have no particular good or ill will towards him, but remember that Harjit Sajjan (our former defence minister) was born in India, and he was deployed to Afghanistan a number of times. I have a friend whose twin brothers grew up in Vancouver, and they are both in the reserves.

The "billions" that 69style mentioned is money, not soldiers. (After all, Canada only has a population of ~39M.)
