Trooper Karine Blais, who had arrived just days ago from Canada with the 12th Armoured Regiment based in Val Cartier, Que., was killed in action when her vehicle was hit by a homemade bomb.She will be remembered.
Blais, 21, was the 117th Canadian to be killed in Afghanistan since the start of the conflict in 2002.

UPDATE: Incredibly, Canadian Cynic, aka Robert Day...
...once again decides to direct his venom to this very post to sully the memory of another slain soldier...
And of course, it's not the first time.Remember what CC had to say to the mother of slain Canadian soldier Lane Watkins?
"With all due respect, Wanda, fuck you and your grief. It's not the job of the rest of Canada to continue to let its soldiers die just so you can sleep better at night."You simply cannot get any lower.
You have to ask yourself... "What exactly is it about women... that sets this sicko off?"
And hey, if at first you don't succeed... link again... and again...
**********LAST WORD: Good ol' Canadian Cesspool...
...sends in the "B team"...
Sorry, Kevvy... you're just too needy.*
