If I were fighting against another country, gathering intelligence and making IEDs, and possibly killing people from that country -- getting injured, captured or killed are very real possibilities.

If I had been captured instead of killed

Been given proper medical treatment and necessary reconstructive surgery

And had a 'get out of jail free, pass Go, collect $10.5M card' in the form of a Canadian birth certificate, even though I'd not lived there since age 4 and was actively fighting against them

I'd be thankful that I were still alive, and free and with the ability to have a fresh start.
