Interesting read.... It may happen next week. Seems that a PM is PM until he/she resigns. No, the party with the most seats doesn't always govern. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/elections/no-the-party-with-the-most-seats-doesnt-always-govern/ar-AAIYqsX?ocid=spartanntp

I suppose I'll join in. Recruiting Center: Regina Armoury Regular/Reserve: Reserve Officer/NCM: NCM Trade choice 1: Weapons Tech-Land Trade choice 2: Vehicle Tech Trade choice 3: Application date: 2019-Jul-9 First contact: 2019-Jul-11 CFAT: 2019-Sep-10 FORCE: 2019-Sep-10 Interview...

Ah yes, the knee-jerk reaction of the NZ government. They fear the mighty Cooey 60 and the venerable Wingmaster 870, along with the ever so deadly Win '94.  :panic: Think of the children!!! No-one will be able to teach them to enjoy shooting and hunting safely.....  ;D Again, gun control...

I found this that may help, even though it has to do with the CFAT. https://army.ca/forums/threads/13076/post-1534380.html#msg1534380 It would be worth a phone call to your recruiter.

So, as an example, one would only use the P.Eng. post-nominal when the correspondence had something to do with engineering? Similarly, using RSE only when the subject matter applies to your field of expertise, correct?

Not sure about other provinces, but Saskatchewan Canada has volunteer organization to help relieve duties of volunteer Fire Departments and RCMP. It's called SARSAV. They utilize STARS helicopters when needed. They train solely in SAR, but are also volunteers and civilians and only number around...

I read the same article. By the same logic, we could reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

More "ammo" for the gun grabbers. A deadly semi-auto assault military weapon legally purchased by a legal licence owner....  :facepalm:

An interesting read on gun control from Bermuda... and their solution when bans and confiscation didn't work. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-what-bermudas-50-year-old-gun-ban-can-teach-canada/

Absolutely. I often wonder why some people don't understand that prohibition doesn't work. If it did, we could just make murder and assault illegal...... that would cure the "gun" problem. Let's put meth and crack cocaine on the list too!! :)

Thought I'd point this out. From 38 Canadian Brigade and 38 Service Battalion on Facebook... Please move if in the wrong place. Edit: There is also one hosted by 39 Service Battalion in Richmond B.C.

The CCFR just received 3rd party status. They have a big announcement today.

E-cigarettes and vaping products aren't taxed as heavily as smokes or chew.... It's ok if you pay enough tax.

The amnesty for the LGR lasted as long as the registry did, one could only hope that there will be non-compliance or owners taking advantage of the 2 year amnesty. If only 10% or 25% of "assault weapons" are turned in, the amnesty will be extended. The only other recourse would be to start a...

Another promise from JT is to “further strengthen safe-storage laws”. (Which are already rock solid) I'm thinking they are looking seriously into centralized storage. Ranges will have increased costs for facilities and security or close up completely. The costs related to sport or recreational...

Public safety, my eye. They abused the public trust and broke into houses and safes. In the end cost taxpayers $2.3M. From here: https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/high-river-residents-paid-2-3m-for-controversial-rcmp-home-and-gun-sweeps-during-2013-flood

From there it would go to bolt and lever guns that hold more than 7 rounds, and rimfires that hold more than 11, like the deadly Cooey M60..... Say goodbye to your duck gun and trusty Rem 760. Here's New Zealand's list... https://gazette.govt.nz/notice/id/2019-go2786 There's even parts and...

As someone pointed out in the election thread, I'm sure glad that they are going to leave all the illegally owned guns alone.  ::)

I'm wondering if the 5 week residency portion of PLQ is a major stumbling block for older reservists? (and has a lot to do with retention) I mean, once out of university or college, who can take 5 weeks off of a job to attend? No PLQ=no promotion to MCpl. My belief is that not many folk would be...

The CPC wants to increase funding (16.1Billion) and take politics out of procurement. I found an article, but it's from the CBC..... https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/scheer-foreign-defence-policy-procurement-trudeau-1.5127028 The Libs are already cutting billions...
