Best Buddies!

From 1910 to 1920 we as a Canada were still clinging for dear life to our friendship with Britain. We had not yet realized that We could do it on our own. To make matters worse we started to get cozy with United States of America which would lead to bone head decisions in the future. Really if we are truly honest with ourselves we will find that we joined WW1 because our big brother (Britain) was doing it too. It didn't help however that it seemed to be the growing trend with most "free" countries joining the war. Russia, Britain, France, Holland all were part of the grand scheme of WW1. If you were to ask me what WW1 was I would tell you it was the greatest bandwagon ride EVER!  Never before have some many countries joined together because England was fighting. Really it was a waste of our time as a nation and it didn't help us as a nation either. If we had joined on our ow terms like during the 2nd world war I could see it being useful to us as a nation and as a successful power in the  ever-growing world.
