    Shipbuilding strategy needs long-term contracts: senator

    I dont think I saw this posted anywhere else so here it is.  There was another news posting from the DIN last week indicating that the government is planning on spending 40 Billion on new ships over the next few decades but I cant find that one anymore. Here is the link...

    Allowances - Post Living Differential (PLD) [MERGED]

    You mentioned not getting into a lease in Esq.  Is this specifically because of his short duration there, or was it more a statement about leasing in Esq. more generally speaking?  The reason I ask is that, Esq. is going to be in my future as a full posting sooner or later.

    Allowances - Post Living Differential (PLD) [MERGED]

    I have a question about PLD. I am currently posted to Toronto, however, I live over 1.5 hours away from Toronto.  In my posting message it says movement of F & E restricted, which I have interpreted as meaning I am not allowed to move my stuff at the crowns expence. However, If I were to find...

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    I dont think this is always the case.  I have never been a rich man, not anywhere near close, and neither has my family and I have always leaned towards the conservative side of the spectrum.  When I got to university and started to learn more about politics, I started to lean even more to the...

    Chance of Deployment [Merged]

    A little immature don’t you think? I am man enough to admit when I have made a mistake and apologize for it, such as the case in this thread.  What value do you serve with a post like this?

    Chance of Deployment [Merged]

    I meant no disrespect to the R22eR, I have a strong family lineage in that regiment.  When I spoke of politics, I was talking about the federal kind, not sure if that was misinterpreted or miscommunicated on my part, but certainly I was under the impression both from comments I have read on...

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    And here I thought I had invented a word of my own.  Oh well.

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    This thread really isn’t about grammar and paragraph structure.  It’s about attitude.  Your poor attitude has inspired others to take shots at you and here we are.  If you really want to know why good writing skills are required in the CF then it should be taken to another thread (and they are...

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    Folks I really dont think a back and forth exchange of belittling one another is going to accomplish anything here..

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    Its not what you are saying thats at issue, its the way you are saying it.  You cannot expect to make posts like this one, or the one previous without inciting a fiery responce. As for protests, when I see them on TV, or I get stuck in traffic because they blocked the road or something, in all...

    Chance of Deployment [Merged]

    The RCR and the PPCLI are deploying more often then the Royal 22nd Vandoos due to politics. After SQ you will need to take your infantry trades course called DP1.  I beleive that is the bare minimum that would allow you to go to Afghanistan.  If you get them all done back to back its possible...

    Enhanced Reliability Check (ERC) - Merged

    I do not beleive ammo techs require a security clearance, which is likely why you were not given those forms.  There are other trades who will require a clearance to do their trades training and be employable in their trade once training is complete.  For those people, security forms are...

    Tough choice, don't know what to do.

    If you go on this course, you will end your career, its as simple as that.  You cannot run by your own admission, there is no way in hell you can cope with an infantry course.  People in good health have a hard time coping physically and you are not in good health right now. Get the doc to...

    Int Op trade tell me more and more reg force please

    You would have to approach your local intelligence unit recruiting staff and let them know you want to join as an INT officer.  Assuming that the unit wants to endorse your candidacy as an officer, you would be set up with a PSO (personel selection officer interview).  The PSO will assess...

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    I am in the military and I am right wing.  I know for a fact that not everyone in the military shares right leaning views.  This is made obvious by all those arguments I find myself in with those damned lefties :D On a more serious note though, this has been said by others, but I will say it...

    The Canadian Peacekeeping Myth (Merged Topics)

    Unfortunately I dont think this story is going to get legs.  The vast majority of the media simply do not want Harper in office anymore.  Its become painfully obvious.
