http://www.cbc.ca/news/canadavotes/riding/017/ Well, she lost. She didn't get quite the humbling we were hoping for, but either way the people spoke. Less than a third of the people that showed up at the polls could identify with her antics.

Also, the merit listing can definitely benefit the soldier in the end. I would hate to have some numpty be my LAV gunner, just because he put his hand up. I'd rather know that the CoC thought they were the best suited soldier for the job, not just a pair of boots.

This is assuming it accompanies a long line of slanderous comments, and not just a banner...then slander/defamation, what not and so forth, depending on the comments (and I'm not claiming to be a LEO or lawyer on this). My point is that for this individual, their entire existence for the last...

If you receive one ticket for doing 10 over, you'll still keep your license. If you are out every day breaking every law in the Provincial Highway Act, then you deserve to have your right to a license taken away.

I'd like to point out that Marc has a very, very long, documented history as a white supremacist. This is not a one off, out of context, outlier post. I don't think the same argument could be made for Mr Bobbit, or for the army.ca community for that matter. I think we're really comparing ables...

I don't get what all of the fuss is about. This article kept mentioning the Canadian Armed Forces. Who are they? Are they some Canadian Forces wannabes? Perhaps it's just the icing on the cake of how uninformed some of their comments are...

If you go to any nutrition/bodybuilding type shop, they have a product called ZMA. This is an old school method that bodybuilders have been using for years. The essential idea is that you get a longer, deeper sleep. The deeper sleep will increase recovery time for the body from tough workouts...

Would any other type of criminal be allowed to stay in Canada free and clear? I'm asking honostly, because my assumptions lead me to believe we'd kick out anyone else that the US is after, be they pedophiles, rapists, car thieves, what have you. Using a bunch of colorful adjectives to describe...

This is also the first generation to have their families ripped apart by capitalists. This is the first generation to see, first hand, daddy spend 18 long, loyal, hard years for company X, only to be kicked to the curb with not so much as a handshake. This is the first generation to see the...

How do you let this go for three years? I can understand not being able to check every single pay stub, but 3 years is a bit negligent on your part. The fact that you are responsible for your pay is taught at the very onset of training, so none of this should be coming as a surprise.

If it is available in the area, co-op is a fantastic way to go. He will spend a half day doing (paid) army stuff, and the other half of the day doing his english and math courses. He'll come out of the semester with BMQ and SQ under his belt, and will hit the ground running for DP1 over the...

These situations aren't a case of "hey guys, watch this". What makes it so funny is complete honesty and earnestness that it is said in...it reminds me of the time that I asked a waitress how big her breasts were (we were discussing my order of chicken), and it wasn't until after she started to...

I saw a similar experience on my DP1 Inf. course. When questioned about an imperfection in his kit during morning inspection (I believe it was an improperly folded towel), the response was "Oh, my bad, MCpl." My 2iC was 6' or 6'1" that summer, but I'm pretty sure he elevated an additional two...

I've had a similar issue with newly issued oxfords. It's even worse when you have to wear white spats over them, because then you have the misfortune of trying to cover the black boot polish that is all over them, while keeping them perfectly white.

Good luck.

I'd be very surprised if you don't hear from them today. They keep regular office hours.

In addition to the Afghanistan thing, the word s.earch appears to have been replaced with the word ignore site wide. I've noticed this in a handful of posts.

As I'm not an officer, I can't rightfully comment on that one, but I don't think a suit would be too far of a stretch. As an NCM I was more khakis with a button down shirt, but more is always expected of officers. Someone else may be able to steer you better than that, or a search may reveal...

Definitely get in touch with the unit recruiters. With very few exceptions, Wed nights are an "open door" information session for recruits. Show up just before 7PM, and if you want to be an officer, dress the part. They will do a quick backgrounder on the types of things we do, the types of...

I guess they want the Pat Platoon to turn out better on 11 Nov? (As an FNG...) One of the things I've always loved about us is that (for the most part), the guys wearing medals all deserve them, especially compared to the some other countries getting ribbons for passing basic training and such...
