I think our sub discussion may have run its course. The only thing I'd add is why assume automatically the LEO is lying or simply being a dick for the sake of being a dick? It portrays a bias. To play devils advocate again, what if the LEO subjectively thought he observed swerving? Maybe his...

I'm not trying to get under your skin or rankle you mate. I do believe in the complaint process. You can blow it off all you want as a foregone conclusion, but that's not what it will be. Visit the MPCC site, lots of case summaries on there where complaints were substantiated. The MPCC is pretty...

I'm curious what you believe the driver was accused of in your story? There are lots of legitimate reasons to swerve in the road that wont result in criminal charges. (Debris, potholes, animals, etc). Was the driver put on an ASD? We're they arrested? Given a violation ticket? We're they...

More on that - the roadside test was never reasonable grounds to believe a crime was committed (impaired driving). It was reasonable grounds to suspect (a much lower standard) alcohol was present in someone who had been driving or in care and control of a motor vehicle. A fail on the ASD test...

Toonie, I'd like to further elaborate my post which you seem to have taken some offense to. When you originally posted your poll, there was very little information provided regarding the actions of the course. Despite this challenge, for the most part, the site membership mostly disagreed this...

Nope, you're just someone from an identifiable unit, beaking off at people you don't know online. You posted a question on a (mostly) military forum, which invited responses. Some of the responses were critical of the question - that's the risk you run when you ask a question. You seem upset...

I'm just going to respond to a couple of your points. The one I highlighted in yellow assumes that no Canadian is a "globalist open border folk" when in all likelihood a substantial portion of the PM's current support comes from people at varying degrees of that spectrum. Are they no longer...

I've cut your post up a bit in my quotes because at the heart of it are three points I can't seem to agree with, despite trying. I'm not a particular fan of the Liberal Government (this one or the one previous - which are the only two I can really comment on having lived through them as an...

I gotta wonder if they are still stressing the uniformity in all things through BMQ, SQ (and Navy/AF equivalents and trades training) and you get to earn your freedom (with facial hair) by passing your QL3/DP1?

Hard to justify investigating an offense if you've been found guilty of the same offense in the past. The disclosure of that information is called a McNeil report. ( R V McNeil https://scc-csc.lexum.com/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/6614/index.do).  It should contain any criminal or disciplinary...

I fixed that for you. While taking the argument to it's extremes with the Kiwi polish, the line between duty and not duty seems to be more and more blurry. On one hand, units are *supposed* to publish regular working hours. On the other, what happens if a member makes the decision to work...

I've been in situations where I've rightly anticipated a call out and made preparations so that the call out was smooth and I was available with minimal energy and wasted time on the part of the chain of command. It's incredibly disappointing that her decision made with full intention to...

I've got 2 kids under 5 (with another on the way). If we wanted to do daycare, it would basically eat up the entire salary my spouse would make having the kids in care - negating any point at all to the exercise. We do however get 689.00 every month from the guv'ment for our two kids... so even...

I apologize for the double post... I was originally going to reply to you, but got lost in the rest of the thread. The answer is all of the above. It depends what you're seeking. For example: For a lot of digital media investigations (ie child porn), we'd write a production order first for...

I've written a number of SW and Production Orders and at least at the warrant level, we generally write an assistance order for at least a locksmith to avoid damaging property unnecessarily. It also covers the locksmith as SW's typically only apply to Peace Officers and therefore we're asking...

... Sigh ... Who have you been hearing these rumours from? What drug testing are you speaking about? Are you speaking about blind testing, testing for cause, testing the quality of your dope? Hard to answer your question without more information.

You've never been stuck alone in an enclosed facility where 1000's of teenagers with gallons of fresh hormones pumping through their blood are similarly stuck...  ;)

(Unpopular Opinion I think?) I ... kinda understand being a wee bit irritable about current and former GG's wearing decorations out of order or incorrectly... - as it is their sovereigns honours and awards system in the first place... but to sh!t all over some random municipal or provincial...

Slow your roll... you know senior officers lurk these boards... They may actually try it... and then where would we be?!  :tsktsk:

This is where you lost me Whiskey601... This thread is about the American Service uniform... No British ranks. They have a much larger budget and routinely ask Congress for more if they spend what they had. It seems unlikely the new dress uniform (rolled out over a number of fiscal years) will...
