Apparently the RCMP will employ 2 de-turreted Cougar AVGPs as TAVII vehicles in BC. The vehicles will be unarmed and be used to transport people under armour in various situations when required. This info provided by Vancouver Sun of 23Mar10.

Can remember when a certain Regiment acted as Enemy during an exercise in the early 70s. We were mounted on Lynxes and M113s and I can remember more than a few paraflares hitting our vehicles. A big blob of light hitting the trim vane of my M113 and ricocheting overhead. And then there was the...

Perhaps we should just scrap the Leos and write off our investment and our capabilities, limited as they are. Beating swords into plowshares should please the left-leaning bureaucrats. Any money saved could be invested in man-carried foot bridge sections, 'cause when they get done...
Brihard:
The problem is that there are TOO MANY vested interests concerned with maintaining things as they are. "Jobs for the BOYS" is one of them. If there are cutbacks to CBGs and Land Force Areas you will probably see an exponential increase to the manning tables of NDHQ to provide...
