Canada has formally applied to join the U.K.-led Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), a collection of NATO nations whose mandate is to respond more quickly in a crisis.
Prime Minister Mark Carney formally announced the plan on Wednesday while meeting with his British counterpart Andy Burnham.
In a statement, Carney called JEF an “important initiative” and highlighted other close defence ties with the U.K., including Canada’s observer status in the development of the next generation of fighter jet.
Canada is too busy making the world safe for transgenders to fight any boring old war.
