I think the PMs protection detail is RCMP? PPS are the cops who patrol parliament hill...

It absolutely is all that, unless its a day where half the ships company is at the range, or the ENTIRE ships company is on post deployment leave and you are cold moving someone else's ship, or..and this my favorite...you get a call saying you need to move jetties in the next 60 min because QHM...

This is the correct answer which I can confirm based on the combination of flags that are flying. As to why a MM under its own power might employ ugs: prudence and risk mitigation. My first ever CO was an outstanding shiphandler and also thought it was unnecessary to button on tugs when a MM...

We do! And not just with the peaked caps either :) And if you are Admiral Beatty, RN, you are apparently remembered, in part, for it

would this 'new steering' alleviate the issues you and I faced with the thrusters suddenly, wildly and randomly operating on its own, spinning through all 360 degrees? Fun times...

I know, right?? But then the more I read, the more I realized that a whole lot of Responsible Authorities appeared to have no fucks to give that day. Like this part here:

A summary of the official report

I would expect them to try and find a woman to be MND given recent events and the virtue signaling that is a hallmark of this government. Someone somewhere else suggested Freeland as a way to quash any leadership ambitions in the near term, but I 'm not so sure. I think such a move might...

It is indeed a leadership failure on the part of that member's Unit Chief! This is an MPC H&A. Clothing stores for the NCR is in Quebec, the border to which was closed for non essential travel for the last while. I personally do not consider getting my monkey suit appropriately tailored...

At LEAST 1 of those photos looks to be a professionally staged PA photo. Given the relative newness of being able to wear ponytails in uniform - at least for your non-RCN folks - and our ongoing efforts at attracting and recruiting more women, it would not surprise me in the least if the...

Space Force!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA....oh wait...you're serious. You must not remember the Caledonia land dispute in Ontario from 15 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_River_land_dispute#Douglas_Creek_Estates_(Kanonhstaton) The events that are happening now pale in comparison to what happened back...

Definitely possible. IIRC we did employ them as part of Op PODIUM which you certainly could not have done with YDT-10 or the other YAGs. However the ORCAs are not nearly as versatile for "jetty bashing" which you literally need to do - physically (and hopefully gently) bash a jetty - to fully...

Huh...to me the pic is completely in line with the point the author is trying to make: the public sees the CAF as a monolith and thinks we are ALL white, male soldiers, which is likely why he advocates to 'rebrand'. That one pic shows anyone reading (and ideally potential recruits) that there...

*shudder* A genuine testament to your leadership and the performance of your team, Chief.  The flurry of helm and engine orders I issued in that (aborted) departure from Cartagena would have been enough for the SSD Helmsman to have earned his pay that day.  The fact that you and your team were...

It is from Oct 1998, our inaugural entrance to Esquimalt Hbr following the coastal transfer from the East Coast.  I'm on the bridge wing in the photo. While it may be strategically imprudent, there are immediate Operational-level effects that can be achieved by MARLANT/MARPAC by keeping them...

My limited experience was similar.  I was LO for a visiting OHP in 1998.  They entered Halifax Harbour without the proper harbour charts.  They literally used this 1:40,000 chart: http://www.gpsnauticalcharts.com/main/ca4237_1-approaches-to-approches-de-halifax-harbour-nautical-chart.html So...

And now he has apparently gone "missing", at least according to his boss at his full-time employment, who isn't being named, because... reasons https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/patrik-matthews-neo-nazi-army-reservist-missing-1.5262251
