    Darting to and fro in The Great DART Debate

    Well...for starters, if they were "HQ", then they will house their own equipment. The Air Force covers that for them

    "Unionizing" the CF (merged)

    Excellent point you make, and am sure this is one overlooked point for those that might be in favour of a union. I mean there are some that already think Mess dues should be optional, and now considering having to pay out to some Union that might / might not do anything for you. Speaking of...

    Toronto: Love it or hate it?

    The people with the main problem, are those that think an area / country should continue to look the same. These isn't our grandparents period, times are changing and people are going to have to learn to suck it up. It must be fun (NOT) living in a small minded community

    Peter MacKay leaving politics

    Funny you should mention "interpretation"...ironic ain't it as it applies to discussions on here and responses? YES I have met McKay on more than one occasion in and out of uniform, and sat down at a table with him. He actually still owes me a towel (cos he / his people forgot to pack a towel...

    Toronto: Love it or hate it?

    Country bumpkins are reading this now, and saying yeah right whatever. of the combat variety may be, but these days drones can be controlled from the comfort of a room, but that requires more technical skills. Anyway, there is traveling to educate yourself with culture, and there is...

    Peter MacKay leaving politics

    Same point as the poster who seems to really think the main reason McKay has quit, is truly because he wants to spend more time with the family. Going to roll your eyes and ask the other poster how he knows this for a fact? ::)

    Peter MacKay leaving politics

    I hope you know there is more to the whole story that meets the eye? Same goes for John Baird who since stepping down March 16 this year, he has been racking up positions in the private sector. Mining giant Barrick Gold appointed him to its international advisory board. Canadian Pacific Railway...

    Toronto: Love it or hate it?

    OP....I'll take T-Dot any day over the "boonies" or other smaller towns (pop less than 500k) calling themselves 'cities', where people are afraid of people that don't look like them, and tend to have xenophobic tendencies which they exhibit subliminally or blatantly. You are not going to see a...

    Peter MacKay leaving politics

    If any of them waited until after the next election to resign then they have to wait until the age of 65 to collect their big fat government pension. If they retire now the can collect it at age 55. Cartoons Galore “The world's most influential diplomat and Ottawa's most eligible bachelor...

    Harrasment in public..Hydro One fires "jerk" for reporter prank

    Speaking of harassment in public, seems the social media crew don't mind this rapper spouting his misogynistic views in public. Good on John Tory taking the stance though. http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/music/2015/05/27/petition-asks-nxne-to-axe-free-action-bronson-show.html

    Harrasment in public..Hydro One fires "jerk" for reporter prank

    Ahahaha...how fitting, and talk about using distraction to screw people. No wonder Hydro One wants people to be preoccupied with stories about some SOB being fired yelling obscenities when their billing system is so poorly managed. Wonder if the CEO should be fired...

    Harrasment in public..Hydro One fires "jerk" for reporter prank

    How in the world are you not seeing that if it goes to court, then lawyers are involved, which translates to someone has to pay for the fees and any awards. Hydro one if found guilty of unjust, will then try to recoup that costs somehow. Not that they've ever needed a reason to hike their prices...

    Can I go officer 3 year concentration Bachelor's Degree

    What is your definition of "related experience and education"? I ask because if someone is really considering being an AERE officer, and has a BA degree, they might find themselves struggling during trade trading if science hasn't always been their thing, but that is not to say it's not...

    Harrasment in public..Hydro One fires "jerk" for reporter prank

    Hydro one is yet to provide a "just cause" reason for firing this jerk (yes I am calling him that), and instead to based their decision on social media justice. Whatever the outcome, it's Hydro customers that will suffer the most from hiked monthly bills.

    Marriage Breakdown - pension split

    @OP....Prairefire has given you some wonder feedback references above, with snippets from the cases. By default as soon as Lawyers hear 'Military', the word pension is bound to come out of their gobs within minutes. I got my pension estimate from Ottawa (took less than 4 weeks) at the time, and...

    Harrasment in public..Hydro One fires "jerk" for reporter prank

    This guy is obviously NOT going to get his job back, and nobody is going to be offering him one anytime soon. However, Lawyers should be able to secure him a substantial golden handshake, with them taking a % of course.
