NO NATO EXERCISE FOR CASH-STRAPPED NAVY

As far as I understand Canada has the greatest force in the NATO contingent in afghanistan. Yet our resources are strapped for cash. Who will be the next country to step up to the plate or are we going to leave the country to fall back into a haven for terrorists? Any takers, and what's going to happen in Iraq. The states are going to have to leave there eventually, they've even used up their reserves and national guard for active duty.
