Looking forward to your thoughtful article. Take care.

Just state how you see it, what you would do for your country.

Almost anything to attain social justice within my country (public service, activism, etc.).

What you would never do for your country.

I don't know if I can kill for my country.

If drafted to the armed military would you go? or run away.

Neither. I would stay in my country and refuse to join the military, and probably protest the war (unless it is legitemately self defence on Canadian soil, but the odds of that are very low).

Please state your politicsal leaning, does not matter what party, just the direction you lean.

Democratic socialist, with far left and libertarian social policies. Left wing of the NDP.

Just state how you see it, what you would do for your country.

I see patriotism as standing firm for the liberties of myself and others, even and especially when their values differ from my own, as long as their values aren't reliant on using force against others to conform to their beliefs. I would die for the country and the values that the Constitution was meant to represent.


What you would never do for your country.

I would never kill for my country.

If drafted to the armed military would you go? or run away.

I would not go, but I would not run away. I believe the draft to be wrong, and would gladly sit in jail for the time prescribed to support my beliefs. It is the duty of one who chooses civil disobedience to be ready and willing to accept the consequence of such obedience. I believe those who run to be cowards.

Well, according to "The World's Smallest Political Quiz", I'm more Libertarian than Ayn Rand...lol

State your age and gender please.

35/m (this sounds suspiciously like a chat room "a/s/l?" check...bad form...lol)

Just state how you see it, what you would do for your country.

What it asked of me, even if I do not agree with it, as long as it does not go against my faith, and the laws of the land.

What you would never do for your country.

Break the laws of the country.

If drafted to the armed military would you go? or run away.

Go. I did register, just was never called.

Please state your politicsal leaning, does not matter what party, just the direction you lean.

Conservative

State your age and gender please.

Old enough and male.

"Just state how you see it, what you would do for your country."

- Whatever was asked, as long as it did not go against my personal faith... "...ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country."


"What you would never do for your country."

- Interesting question....but I would never deny Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour.


"If drafted to the armed military would you go? or run away."

- Would go....I have already served in the military

"Please state your politicsal leaning, does not matter what party, just the direction you lean."

- conservative (coming from a liberal family)

"State your age and gender please."

- 30 and male

Just state how you see it, what you would do for your country.

Abide by the laws, pay taxes, basically do what is required of me as a citizen to help keep the country running smoothly and a safely. I would also speak out and put appropriate actions behind those words when I felt that there was a problem in the country that needed to be addressed.

If more was asked of me, I would do it so long as it did not harm my family or go against my moral beliefs.

What you would never do for your country.

Eat rat innards? (kidding) I would not do something illegal to further a cause that I felt was important for the well-being of the country. Beyond that, I'm not sure.

If drafted to the armed military would you go? or run away.

I have considered joining the military at times, but have decided against it because I would not want to leave my children for a year or more at a time. I am the one constant in their lives, and I wouldn't willingly take that away.

If I were drafted, I would go and serve to the best of my ability.

Please state your politicsal leaning, does not matter what party, just the direction you lean.

Liberal.
