FYI, Canada historically has taken a far more leadership role than the US. We were in WWI and WWII alot earlier than the Americans. We're the 2nd most deployed army in NATO, the 1st being the UK.
It is not that the US is incapable of taking the leadership role but that Canada has taken more the risk in doing so.
