    Protest: "Canada and NATO out of Afghanistan," 4 Apr 09, Montreal

    It was an enormously stupid mistake of the current government to "brag" about how much money would be allocated to the CF over 20 years. It was a shallow ploy to make a paltry annual budget look big, while being a large enough number to raise the hackles of hippies nationwide. I do wonder what...

    How to Lose Friends and Alienate Countries

    The lumbering slug that is facebook is mobilizing as we speak to fight this injustice! I'm getting all these invites to join a wave of copy & paste social grass roots activism. I don't know why people feel compelled to create these groups, so heavily duplicated and without any COA asides from...

    Battlestar Galactica (Beware....Possible SPOILERS! read at your own risk)

    Trinity. I stated in my post that I acknowledged and actually appreciated the shows heavy use of Greek mythology. Many characters on the show, and almost all people in real life accept the non literal nature of Greek Gods. It seemed to me that the Greek mythology was gradually dropped as the...

    Canadian Officials Visit US Deserter

    Excellent letter Flawed Design! You kept a cool head and wrote something eloquent and from the heart. I hope you receive a response as respectful and well thought out as what you've asked of these misguided MPs.

    Canadian Officials Visit US Deserter

    Were public funds used to pay for this trip? If so, do you think I should write to the Auditor General about this? I'd be pretty furious if it turned out that our tax dollars were spent so that MPs could visit American cowards. At any rate, this is an epic fail on the part of elected...

    Tradition Surrounding Fallen Soldiers Kit

    I'd like to ask you all to keep an eye out for another item, I am under the impression that the 64's are no longer in the system so this one should be obvious. I'm trying to help Cpl Wasden's wife find his 64 pattern ruck.

    Battlestar Galactica (Beware....Possible SPOILERS! read at your own risk)

    Agreed. I was bitterly disappointed with the finale. I really liked the Greek polytheism in the series because it brought with it a rich history of dramatic storytelling, but at the end it just did a hardcore nose dive into modern, literal, monotheism. I am surprised the last episode wasn't...

    How to Lose Friends and Alienate Countries

    I watch Fox News occasionally, its like watching a live train wreck. This is the same network that employs Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck. You can't expect pearls from swine. If this is comedy then they've failed at that as badly as the whole "Fair and balanced" thing.

    Another case of "sensationalism" by the MSM

    I was waiting for that reference.

    "I was born to rape"

    Yeah, judging by his "recreational" activities, I can't imagine the above ground Fritzl household was particularly pleasant.

    "I was born to rape"

    I hope Mrs. Fritzl is scrutinized in the investigation. I find it hard to believe she could not have noticed something of this elaborate and disgusting scheme under her own roof for so many years.

    Another CAN Journalist Nabbed, This Time in PAK

    So, is the ransom $375,000 or $150,000? I hope that not one cent or drop of Canadian blood is shed to bring her back. Revoke her citizenship.

    Divining the right role, capabilities, structure, and Regimental System for Canada's Army Reserves

    I haven't read the entire thread, has anyone mentioned the Comm Res experiment? I know that 73 Comm GP amalgamated into an Alberta Comms Regiment, but has since disintegrated back into 3 separate squadrons. Now my understanding is that the Comm Res is being dismantled, transferring to the army...

    Afghanistan: Why we should be there (or not), how to conduct the mission (or not) & when to leave

    That is what I suspected/hoped. I bet the kids mind will change when his uncle comes home. My niece was concerned/critical of the mission when I was over but now that I am back its totally off the radar screen.

    Canadian jets scrambled to intercept Russian bomber before Obama visit

    They haven't got a natural gas pipeline to use to remind us that they exist so this is what they do. I figure if they had a more modern aircraft in the works to replace the Bear that might be a more ominous sign. I wonder if they've ever had a Bear crash on one of these flights, it must be a...
