WTF? Just how PC arrogant are you? The Canadian military owns 4 of the 10 longest sniper kills in history. Documented and undeniable. Now you come on this forum and pretend to that Canada (read liberal Ontario) is somehow above proficiency with firearms. You sir are an arrogant PC ass. Canadians are by far, some of the most proficient killers on numerous battlefields. Your rejection of this reality is as much a revelation of your personal dishonesty as it is your willingness to blindly accept falsehoods promoted by dishonest politicians attempting to project a specific image.

There's even a historic Division of the U.S. Army - the 10th Mountain Division that specializes in winter operations -
