CBC: Canadian forces strike back against ISIS offensive in northern Iraq
No Canadian casualties reported after involvement in responding to lengthy ISIS offensive
A contingent of Canada's elite commandos were thrown into a day-long battle alongside Kurdish Peshmerga fighters as the Islamic State launched its biggest offensive in Iraq since western troops arrived in the region 18 months ago.
A three-pronged assault, involving hundreds of extremists, took place along a wide front in the sector, northwest of the Kurdish capital of Irbil, where Canadian special forces have been training local forces.

RRH .... I now know without question that you are a true Canadian. A true Canadian will never throw a full can of beer at the enemy .... it will always be an empty.
