[00:00.39] Hi, my name is Mike. I'm from Canada and this is for. Today's topic is do young people in your country have to serve in the army.

[00:09.64] Well, I'm from Canada and people don't have to serve in the unlike countries like Singapore or for example Korea, where it is mandatory to serve for a certain period of time, for example, two years. In Canada it's optional, and the next thing that you might ask is which is better? Should you have a mandatory army or should you have where it is an optional service. I think both ways could be good. Having a mandatory service definitely instills some discipline in you and it's nice to see that discipline in a certain people from a certain country, whereas from people from a country that don't have to go the army, you can see there is a bit of a relaxation with them, which could also be looked at as a positive note, so who knows if it's better to go to the army or not, but I like having the choice myself.
