Or perhaps I find the results of the policy to be unsatisfactory? I will admit that the sentence about the MND was off-base and comes more from my frustration of the system and the poor overall results we have achieved in the military file. It amazes me that we cannot issue basic items to...

Very true.

I'll believe it when it happens. Just because they are finally starting to realize how much we are starving for more money to actually conduct decent training and to be able to procure modern kit for said training does not mean they will do anything about it. Call me cynical but this could...

I hope that they are found safe and sound.  :cdn:

Absolutely you can argue that the world wars crippled the economies of Europe, I would agree with that. I would argue that those economies had recovered and in the majority of cases improved from pre-war conditions by the mid-70's. Would you not say that there is innovation around the world in...

I would also like to join those above me in thanking the moderators for their contributions and time committed to making this place the success that it is.

I gave it a shake, situation no change. This world event does not necessarily have to be a global conflict with massive loss of life such as the world wars. I am talking about an event that unifies Canadians (and to a greater extent Western civilizations) towards a common purpose. An event...

Absolutely I include those as well. Same here, I like the old style pants better too...

Looks absolutely ridiculous. This whole fascination with velcro (whoops, I mean hook and loop) is mind boggling. Buttons are much more quiet and they rarely open up when you brush against something, velcro on the other hand...

Not even the buyer knows that information.  ;D

Is that not the benefit of capitalism? Constantly having to meet targets, innovate, become more efficient, etc. that is how our society progresses. Not having "too big to fail" corporate entities that simply reap the benefits of those who succeed through their determination, knowledge and...

I seem to remember a single "holographic" image on my old one. Hopefully someone who is more familiar with them will be able to chime in.
