Thought so, I only saw it once on PAYTV back in the day. The part I remember most was when the tricked the guys out of their tank by throwing in a fake grenade. I loved the way the guy yelled, "It's a fake!" Maybe I should rent it

My brother was an extra in this film. If memory serves me right, a lot of the filming was done in a dump in Halifax (well, his scenes anyway). He was getting paid $10 an hour, which was a lot then. It had a different title when they were filming, like "Blind Eye" or something like that. He had a t-shirt with that on it, I know that there is a picture of him in the t-shirt somewhere.

Indeed it was. Nova Scotia is mentioned quite a bit in the ending credits.
