If it's done by an organization that "is trained in military tactics, are equipped as a military force, can operate under direct military authority in deployed operations, and can, realistically, be deployed outside national territory in support of a military force" , then yes, it would be a...

Having seen only a grainy photo of the LEO in the background who fired the round, I was unsure what agency he belonged to when I looked through CA Penal Code as to who § 835a applied. The reporting since id him as LAPD. However my perusal of the code brought this to my attention. It is very...

The Germans gave us one in 1993 in Lahr as a farewell.

Include a torchlight parade (Großer Zapfenstreich) and you have a spectacle.

G7 15 - 17 June. He's getting an early flight. There's always one or two who show up early to have a day before meeting with the host leader. Sometimes there's a legitimate reason, sometimes it just plays well with the hometown crowd to have that additional publicity bump. Especially if...

When I saw the 'offending' post, I will admit that I was confused about the connection of the British PM and Ukrainian rent boys to "the war in Ukraine". However, as your years of service in HM British Forces have undoubtedly provided you with some insight (if not the proclivity) into the...

Devil's advocate. If these federalized National Guardsmen are being employed to "protect federal personnel and federal property in the greater Los Angeles area in support of the lead agency" (using the language of the tweet in an above post) are they being used for "law enforcement"? Or...

Ahh, the memories of just another early Saturday morning following an evening at the Cosmopolitan in Fredericton.

My concern is not that "anyone hired to do surveys or polling" would be forced to give up who they called but my concern is that the party gives them my information so that they call me, or that either the party or a contracted lackey can use my information for any purpose they claim is...

LAC have now put the records of WW2 deceased online. https://recherche-collection-search.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/Help/kia Using unit, year of death and 'Regina' as a search term, it narrowed the possibilities down. Found one individual who died on that date whose records have a notation as a...

Seen. While the school may not have a problem, I am reminded of a comment from the 1980's when I was at the edges of the issue. The contemplated objection was not from the school but from DND; if a co-op student was going to be providing services to a private company while on the public...

That's the going price of a 'TACO' these days.

Question. Is it a requirement of your co-op programme that participating companies "must" pay the students during the work terms? I ask as, forty years ago, when I contemplated something similar, the school I was looking at had that requirement (rare at the time). It wasn't a factor in my...

This is something we should be looking closer at. The article doesn't reference the former bill that attempted to introduce this, but I assume that, as it is to amend the Canada Elections Act, the concerns raised by the Privacy Commissioner over the previous attempt still stand...

While that G&M editorial may contain many salient thoughts, due to paywall, I can only base a response on the few lines you quoted. What caught my attention was their reference to a "federal Arctic policy". For clarification - the "federal Arctic policy" released in December was "Canada’s...

Yes, I know. Your point?

RIP By coincidence, I picked up his autobiography today at the library. A Most Extraordinary Ride by Marc Garneau: 9780771016219 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books I can't claim that I knew him, but I remember when the group for that first astronaut selection came to NDMC for their medical...

You know what they say about only one opportunity to make a good first impression? The lingering questions negative opinions about Premier Smith would, in many cases, have originated from her October 1998 election to the Calgary Board of Education...

You'd think that Montanans would understand how ranch owners in that state feel about trespassing.
