Something near 109 St would be doable as that is a main entry point for the bridge over. I make it to base from Jasper Ave area and it takes 15-20 minutes tops. The catch is you leave no later than 0620 and you either take up a habit of drinking more coffee or pre-morning PT. On the way back...

'Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay; and claims a halo for his dishonesty.' - Robert Heinlein Maybe I'll VR and get an Order of Canada too.

Not really the point ... He could be convinced he was Santa Claus himself, but to the enemy, to the public and to the majority of the leadership he is seen as an important figure. Personally, to me he is just another soldier that belongs to a vestigial institution - but since I am not in an...

Its a good show, too bad its only seven episodes. The book is pretty slick too and goes into talking about other guys (i.e. Manimal). I found out the other day that Fruity Rudy is played by the real Fruity Rudy.

Not unless Ontario is in British Columbia :)

I've met MCpl Temmler and I'm 99.9% sure that is him. He's from a res unit out west.

If ever I want something from Rogers I neglect to pay my bill on time. They call real quick and I get to bypass the wonderful 50 minute hold times.

We'd be better off focusing our efforts on retention. We don't have enough instructors and the more recruits you bring in the more waiting around they do at more of an expense. Be selective and increase training expenditure for existing soldiers. You won't have quantity but you'll have quality...

I was wandering the same thing. So enoying.
