I no longer have the link, but can find it if nagged -- 5 months before the invasion of Iraq, Canadian intelligence findings were that the situation in Iraq would not work because it would deteriorate into -- exactly what it has. No exit plan, and a quagmire.

That's one reason why Canada didn't go in with the US - plus, we found it repugnant, and the government would have had a hard time selling it to us.

The question is, however: if our intelligence knew, why didn't US intelligence?
