Prime Minister Paul Martin rewrote Canadian military history Wednesday as he described the great Canadian contribution to the liberation of Europe in 1944...
"Sixty years ago, Canadians were working alongside their British and American allies planning for the invasion of Norway and the liberation of Europe," Martin said in an address to 350 soldiers at the CFB Gagetown training base outside Fredericton, N.B.
A few minutes later, he repeated the gaffe.
"Today, it is every bit as important that Canada step forward -- just as we did during the invasion of Norway," he said, prior to announcing a series of military spending initiatives that have been in the works for some time.
That, of course, would be Normandy, not Norway, whose German garrison of over 400,000 troops surrendered peacefully to the Allies a few weeks after WWII in Europe ended.
I will say this in Prime Minister Martin's defense: There are many times where I'd like to forget everything about France, too!
