we were better trained and also the benefit of the fact you pretty much grew up with the same people you were fighting next to so everyone knew what each othere were capable of.

Canadians squads/companies/whatever were pretty much town based. So if you were from the same town chances were good you'd all be in the same squad.

Was another reason why we were known to be so vicious. you'd be pretty damn pissed off too if the enemy just killed the only friend you had since childhood and you saw it happen first hand. Add to the fact Canadians just love a good ol "donnybrook" We love fighting, even pretend fighting. There's a reason why so many of us love Hockey and why some of the best pro-wrestlers ever are Canadian.
