1. Keep a tickle trunk. (That's where you stuff stories that, at any given moment, can be pulled out and feel current.)

It is a stunning result. If someone asked me whether Canadians preferred peacekeeping to combat, I would have said "combat" in a second. My guess would have been that Canadians like the idea of carnage on the battlefield; maimed soldiers; collateral damage.
Turns out I was exactly wrong: Canadians would prefer our military to run peacekeeping operations.
Thank you, Globe and Mail, for giving me the news I need.
