Take deep regular breaths and suck it up. You did'nt get out of shape overnight, it took 34 years - so it will take some time to get back into shape. Eat a balanced diet - long on fruit and vegetables, lean meat and some carbs, do your stretching before bed and in the morning and drink lots...

Probably no - one. The new policy is that only parcels addressed to specific soldiers get delivered. Letter mail to "Any Canadian Soldier" still goes through though. A group of people here in AB bought a LAV full of Kraft Dinner for the boys overseas - and the Army gave it to a food bank.  :-[...

Depending on which branch of islam she adheres to, her faith demands a whole series of restrictions that prohibit her from even having a job outside the home. These "requirements" are routinely dismissed my imams and mullahs of this century, who recognise them for what they are, reasonable when...

Apparently, you are getting rather thin skinned in your new trade too!* Perhaps a cadpat ascot to wipe away the tears is the solution.... ;D *For the record, GO!!! would like to acknowledge that all of the CSS trades (even jimmies) are necessary and valued members of the fighting team, and...

Can't you just call the union rep to find out?

recce pigeon, We have a faaaaar better plan than merely matching contributions. First of all, it is a defined benefit, vice a defined contribution plan. This is inherently more generous, as the amount of money you will be paid is calculated as an average of your best 5 years pay, regardless of...

I have some terrible news for you. As a junior signals officer in northern AB, the odds of you being on the cutting edge of cool are slim. When combined with your cadpat scarf, they increase exponentially against you. Sorry to be the one to have to break this to you.  ;D

Running in boots does not make your feet look like that without anothermedical condition as an aggravating factor. I've done a dozen exercises where we ran everywhere, up and down stairs, on roads, in buildings, vehicles, swamps, mountains and everything else. You might get a few blisters -...

That's a shock to me too! Can you find out which insurance company he is with? I'll buy a few hundred grand more in coverage to ensure my family is taken care of!

If he's going as a civvie contractor - why should the DND/SISIP insure him - unless it is stipulated in the contract? I thought that was the beauty of contracts - everyone knows what they are getting  ???. Also, I think it would add context to this article to say precisely how much the good...

Ahhh, sweet Saskatchewan - one of my fondest pre-army memories was playing rugby there and soundly trouncing a team with a number of pilots on it, and then relieving them of their female company at the following cabaret. One of them was rather upset about this, and was further relieved of some...

"You there!"[pointing with drill clipboard, blue wedge at rakish tilt, gay pointy moustache bristling] "Not you, you you you you you or you - YOU!" "What - are you %*&@ deaf?" "Uh no - but you were yelling at a company sir" "DON'T TELL ME WHAT I WAS YELLING AT - AND GET YOUR HEELS TOGETHER"...

Why would you want a cadpat scarf?  ??? Just wear the issued green headover/neckwarmer/old waffle scarf/trooper hat etc. Cadpat wont save you from anything!

...as ordered by a forward thinking and enlightened supervisor, also known as the KAF-a-saurus. (this was e-mailed to me)

I find a cup or three of timmies and a few cigs on the way to work has me more than ready for a run (or crossfit, as we do these days).

I thought you were not permitted to lobby Government at any level when you were a member of the CF? Can I form a lobby group to push for better benefits?

OR you could have just told him to contact his nearest BPSO's office. This number will be available at even the most poorly run/undermanned orderly room, and barring that (if you live in a city with no major base) the recruiting center which recruited you. All of the BPSO's offices have toll...
