I think if this had depicted a older event it mght have gotten more recognition.
As it was Rwanda was an event in their lifetime they did nothing about.
It was nice seeing Canadians and UN as badasses esp when the Legion comes in and then goes away.
As a Canadian I would have had no problems at the time with us sending the Airbourne Regiment however at the time the AR was under a cloud due to the Arone case in Somalia and no one in out gov't. was going to allow our troops to shoot at Africans.
