    I mean it’s not that surprising? Israel has a draft & mandatory service, so Canadian Jews who moved to Israel at a younger age and are of the draft age basically have to serve there, whereas Canada’s military is much smaller relative to the population & is volunteer only. That can easily make up the difference.
