    Is funding a National Guard deployment with private donations legal?

    A number of US states are contributing resources to assist in security operations at the southern US border due to serious problems exacerbated by the current US administration. Somebody has more money than me and cares about his country. He decides to donate some of it to one of those state...

    Not that they are the only ones to do that, of course. Sorry, but she's incompetent and arrogant and mocking is entirely appropriate.

    She earned that through sheer talent and effort on her part. But, "Waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh". And funny. And accurate. Were the quotes inaccurate? Actually, I thought that 'twas Goebbels that said it earlier.

    Maybe he could ban something.

    What more can he possibly do? That was his post-grope line as well. He cannot hold anybody to a higher standard than he held himself.

    Helicopter/Cyclone discussion (split from HMCS Fredricton thread)

    The min requirements were somewhat more. I always found IF interesting, but not something that I would consider doing recreationally. Most of my flying time was fully manual - Mouseketeer, Tutor, Jet Ranger (Military and Police), and Kiowa - and looking where I was going. And I was never a...

    Helicopter/Cyclone discussion (split from HMCS Fredricton thread)

    I confirmed my distrust of autopilots on my first CH146 Instrument Rating Test.

    Maybe Justin could thank her for her donation like he did with those Grassy Narrows people complaining to him about their water a couple of years ago.

    All Things First Nations - CF help, protests, solutions, residential schools, etc. (merged)

    I don't agree with a lot of what I see in the various sources that I trawl, either regularly or sporadically, but there are worthy articles, of varying frequency, in all of them. And that includes articles with which I disagree, because they make me think and re-evaluate. No segment of any...

    Survey on Future Remembrance Ceremonies

    I believe that they only hold copyright over their particular depiction. A small number of people in Canada have used the British poppy in defiance.

    "The standards of that time" did not include mass genocide or forced horrific "medical" experiments. Some things are just wrong. Abusing and dehumanizing people is one of those things.

    As I understand it, both Churches were on reserve land. Who, then would form their congregations? City-dwelling white people? Who would get married in them? Who would be baptized in them? Whose funerals would be conducted in them? What communities' functions would be held in them? Who...

    Survey on Future Remembrance Ceremonies

    It has long been codified. Remembrance Day - Wikipedia Remembrance Day (sometimes known informally as Poppy Day owing to the tradition of the remembrance poppy) is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth member states. Remembrance Day has been observed since the end of the First World War to...

    Survey on Future Remembrance Ceremonies

    No. It is to remember those who died in wars and conflicts. Dilution is unjustifiable, inexcusable, and wrong, wrong, wrong.

    What was a young German, for example, reasonably expected to do when conscripted between 1939 and 1945? What about a professional Officer, already serving? Many did not accept Nazism, but only a small few dared to actively resist/revolt against it. I have nothing against statues honouring...
