An interesting, recent (2021) monograph about martial race theory from School of Advanced Military Studies, Fort Leavenworth. By a Canadian officer. Martial Race Theory in Contemporary Operational Planning https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/trecms/pdf/AD1161141.pdf

Like most, my acquired view of Victorian thinking on military service in the subcontinent might stem from watching "Carry On Up The Khyber".

"Your" psychiatrist doesn't clear you medically. He should only provide your medical history, what his diagnosis and prescribed treatment was, how you responded to the treatment, his valid opinion of how you are currently coping (in so far as he is able to observe that) and his opinion of what...

Our view of the this "martial tradition and respected profession" mostly stems from their history in the Indian Army (and previously British Indian Army). Though the costumes that could be adopted could outshine the borrowed history and paraphernalia of our current regiments, would the other...

Is "influencer" higher on the totem pole than "content creator"?

Or the lash. Some things stick in your memory. I recall reading a contemporary newspaper report (late 1960s) of what I think was the last use of whipping as punishment. If I recall correctly, it was for rape; in addition to the prison sentence, he was to receive 20 lashes, half when he...

My post was a response to @Kirkhill's suggestion that M3s be acquired and positioned in each province just in case they "might be useful" if there was a civilian disaster situation that required some sort of wet gap crossing capability. My opinion is that the military should acquire, position...

It's not that the CA doesn't have any wet gap crossing capability. https://www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/corporate/news/regional-news/western-sentinel/2025/09/ex-cougar-castle-25-en.html But there is room for improvement...

Patron saint of whorehouses??? ... Sorry, got my annual appointment with optometrist next week.

Others may have different definitions of "failed state". https://www.parliament.gov.rw/news-detail?tx_news_pi1%5Baction%5D=detail&tx_news_pi1%5Bcontroller%5D=News&tx_news_pi1%5Bnews%5D=7607&cHash=ee423f5a0b269407442c68397f04a8e3 "President of the Chamber of Deputies, Right Honourable Mukabalisa...

For a second there, I read that as "Lincoln Rockwell".

That's the problem with grassroots. The grass is always greener when you're on the other side of the fence. From 2022 when she encouraged "grassroots". Weren't the "recall" and "referendum initiative" legislations meant to give the grassroots a more direct say in governing.

Soup? Haven't seen the contents menu of an IMP in a long time.

I don't see the connection to the specific issue of physician reimbursement I was discussing. A worker from Nova Scotia goes to a walk-in clinic in Fort Mac and sees Dr. Sawbones; the worker (not being resident in AB) doesn't have an AHCIP card so he shows his MSI Health Card. The clinic...

To keep it specifically to the issue about doctor reimbursement I discussed in my previous post - if the folks working in Alberta but retaining residency in another jurisdiction seek medical services, they would have the health insurance card/number as well as ID from the other province. Bills...

One of my concerns is was not that patients/clients would or would not be turned away by hospitals but that when we submitted bills for the services provided by the doctors who worked in our clinics that they would be paid by AHCIP. If a patient provided a non-active AHCIP number we only were...

Other than my objection on principle to the current government's move to scrap the (crappy) paper health card in favour of a "digital card" or to have it added to the driver's licence, the ones most at risk of losing (even temporarily) will be those at the edges of society. They will not always...
