Anyways I was browsing Reddit and came across a post where a photo of a sea cadet and his family. It was found in Vancouver B.C. The poster would like to return the photo. I posted here rather than in the cadet forums because this board seems to have more traffic. Here is a link to the post...

A story that I read on Wired.com about a Missileer's story. I thought it would be interesting to show a snuggie is integral to military operations. http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2011/01/death-wears-a-snuggie/

The Nipissing Branch of the Canadian International Council will welcome Commander Alex Grant of the Canadian Navy for a presentation Jan. 18 about the country's Arctic defence policy. Grant has been with the Canadian Forces since 1981. He has a bachelor's degree in physics and oceanography and...

I thought I would stir the pot, (bolding and yellowing my emphasis) Harper wrong on democracy claims: experts Updated Thu. Dec. 4 2008 5:59 PM ET Jim Brown, The Canadian Press OTTAWA -- If there's one point on which Stephen Harper has been adamant, it's his claim that the opposition...

That's what I figured. Is there a consensus to what price oil has to be before people in Alberta really have to worry, I mean that has always been the Achilles tendon of the tar sands, was the higher production costs. I just ask this because the price of oil has been slumping.

I think it was a combined conspiracy to get an extra long Christmas Recess, but that's because I'm that cynical. If I were the Liberal party I would turf Dion ASAP because come the end of January if an election is called or a chance for a coalition comes up they would need a leader that will...

I would like direct evidence that the 2% increase was due to the tax cut (rather than just an assertion by a media) and not to growth of the commodity sector and why a gst cut was better than an income tax cut. Just treating all media the same

I know I'm out of my lane here and I know that this post might go under the "dumbest things you heard today" but, A) Say that you want to create a new Ranger Patrol unit. Use the words "Arctic Sovereignty Augmentation" and/or B) Re-enforce the patrols in MacKenzie and Vanderhoof with a bunch...

1. When will you decorate for Christmas?  ummm, we don't take down the outside lights after Christmas, so I guess December 1999 when we moved to Pet. 2. Real tree, artificial tree, or no tree?    Ever since we got our dog, we use a small 4ft tree, that is 4 or 5 years older than I am. 3. How...

While both Thunder Bay ridings are represented by the NDP, because of space they are sitting on the right side of the House instead of the left side. Even if they were conservative seats they would probably be in the nosebleeds, look at the Kenora riding.

The test is good for people with Jeopardy knowledge. I mean they didn't randomly pick the 9th grader. I scored a 104, good for a 17th place tie as of yesterday.

Here's a neat little interactive picture of where the MPs sit in the House of Commons. http://www.cbc.ca/news/interactives/cp-house-of-commons/ My MP sits in the nosebleeds, although not as far as I would have thought.

I was wondering how this calculated. It says that these are my top boards by activity: Dental Services  0.8403% Milnet.ca Subscribers 0.6398% Milnet.ca Admin 0.5594% CSS & Branches 0.2709% British Military         0.2286% Military History         0.1863% Radio Chatter        ...

It can take about an hour to do, but you can pause it to continue another time if you feel that your army.ca time is being cut into. http://www.geochallenge.ca/geochallenge/public_challenge/default.asp I was hoping for a better score, but I bombed one of the categories, But at least I beat the...

I would say that there will be a million posts by the end of February/March. Just under a third of the overall posts are done by the top 50 posters. Infanteer's percentage has slipped to a measly 1.3% of army.ca and his dominance has been eclipsed by not only one, but two people. Boy times...
