IMO whether it works or not is largely irrelevant.

The missile defense system is all about transferring U.S. taxpayers money into the hands of defense contractors and other high-tech and weapons companies.

The only reason for Canada to join in is if a significant number of those dollars go to Canadian companies. And that notion is probably a non-starter in the U.S. right now.

do you not believe that money for a missle defense system could be used in other ways. now if the US pulls out of Iraq in the next 5 years, then i support the decision for a missle defense system. I doubt that the US will pull out of Iraq, so we don't need something that doesn't work right.
