Pride vs Stupidity
Coming from eSouth Africa, I think that I have a unique view on risks. When your enemy is Brazil and you are 1/100th of the size of your enemy, pressing the Declare War button is somewhat daunting considering that you might be deciding the future of you nation for the coming year. Pride sometimes dictates that we must take risks but these risks must have a possibility of regaining your pride and establishing the respect of people in the eWorld for your nation.
I am not convinced that Rylde and his government has done this. War seems to be for either domination, or simply for fun. I do NOT believe that the “game” of eCandians should be decided in this manner. I also think that as a CP, lambasting an opposition party for simple disagreeing with a NE proposal is simply ridiculous. The Presidency is a post that calls for Servant-hood, not for Power Seeking, Toy Throwing rubbish. I believe that the Presidency serves Congress and this has not been evident in his actions.

Seek Growth
I am confused at the decentralisation of the military in eCanada. I know that the advent of Military Units made a certain amount of decentralisation inevitable, but why the hell are we funding MU's from the government coffers. MU's are self sufficient in other countries and I really feel that the subsidy is foolish.
Instead of giving these funds to Commanders who seek to expand their own pride and power base but redistributing these funds into supplies for Sargent+ players, we should be refocusing the funds onto the Noobs that grace our presence. Instead of focusing on Military Might, we should be Focusing on Human Resource Might, which is what holds the most potential

Focus your goals
Do we want to continue to be America's bitch/hat/wig? We should be using our position on the continent to grow ourselves in a substantial way. Our focus should be on the future awesomeness of Canada. A Canada who is kind, not fast to be angered, reasonable, but not someone with whom you f*ck.

How are you going to stop being their hat?
Well, America could be our Abdomen
I think that is unnecessarily cruel to Mexico.
lol
America is our pants. Mexico is our shoes. Get it right.
Oh and you obviously don't see the point of this war. It was a continuation of what former President Addy Lawrence did. In his presidency, we won 13 consecutive battles against the mighty Poland, only to be stopped by losing our border with them. Countries like France and Germany are depending on us for their existence.
Addy's success came from his 4 consecutive month terms. This is what MDP strives for. Longer and more effective Presidential terms.

Could you elaborate further on "Human Resource Might" vs. "Military Might"? How would it contribute?
New players are a high risk, most stop playing after a week, so giving each of them large amounts of CAD/food/supplies isn't quite effective in managing our Human Resources if they're going to leave in a couple of days. The Ministry of Health is quite a good initiative, ran based off of several donations and the efforts of Doctor of Souls http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/2066263/1/20
Hmmm, it's all very well-intentioned. But it sounds like spending and more spending.
We spent lots on the Construction Program, and it led to overproduction of all goods in the market.
I am curious as to how many of those players actually retained within the game, however.
As MaryChan said, noobs are a risk. That's why I privately fund the noobs in my MU out of my pocket.

Tyrael, I really hope you don't seriously think the Construction Program was the only reason for the massive overproduction all over the world...
As for the MU's being "Self sufficient", you can only be self sufficient to a certain point. Each worker at most can produce 20 weapons by working. With external funding, we can supply more than what we can without it. That's the case no matter how many weapons each person can make. The best way to help new players is to shove them in an MU.
This 😁^
You can only milk one cow for so long before her teats begin to run dry.
cruelbear, if all the new players were shoved into MUs then there would be no one to pay the taxes that supply those extra guns.
There is a limit and we have reached it now that Platobot dropped his prices and Gold is skyrocketing.
Time to rethink the old model. Mark is quite correct in what he is pointing out.
So, if we refocus funds on new players, we would have to hope they don't join an MU, and deprive them of MU supplies and a potential bazooka and energy bar every day, or the government wouldn't be able to afford to help them. MUs should be focusing on trying to get new players even more now that they're more useful than ever, so the taxes aren't going to bring in much money anyway.
I'd use what money we have on the MUs so they can better arm their newest players.
