Actually, you have give Canada extra mad props for its World War II involvement. 1.1 million Canadians engaged in military service during the war out of a population of about 11 million.
Putting up ten percent of your total population to fight a glorious war in which your country was never personally threatened is not "token" by any measure. In fact, it's a fantastic show of brass balls.
If you consider how much Canada gave compared to how much had to offer, their level of courage and valor for that effort is practically unmatched in modern history!
