    Cadets - Edmonton

    Well I would have to say that sums up the way I feel about the CIC as well.  Thanks for the comment King.  Glad to have you back from vacation.  I may be new here, but I have been with the CIC for a while now and I have seen both sides of the coin.  I was a young and cocky ex cadet.  Then I...

    ARE SWORDS ALLOWED FOR CEREMONIAL USE BY CADETS??????
