... was opposed to government policies. Even one where he has obtained a (presumably false) Canadian passport. (They only showed it for a second, but that's what mine looks like so I recognized the format.)

This was over the Christmas holidays. The other trailer they showed with it was the Paul Gross WWI movie (which also looks at fundamental issues about conscience and combat). I'm thinking of seeing both of them when they come out. (I'm wondering if there will be something in the stop-loss movie about war resisters here in Canada ... I've actually met some of them, and one has written a book, called "The Deserter's Tale", which in itself would make a compelling film.)
