It's a great show!! Blew me away at the kit made available to the producers

I wonder if that expensive 'over the horizon' radar we are buying from Australia will impact aircraft numbers at all? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Same reason they gloss over the fact that the Gripen was designed from the ground up to defend Swedish airspace...which is a lot smaller than Canada's... Yes they are both single engine fighters. But Uncle Sam knows damn well their operations are expeditionary in nature, and thus require...

I can't tell is this is raw sarcasm or not...

I read this last line as TCCC and was just like "Well that seems like a pretty big leap there...what happened!?" 😳💥🤯 And then my brain started working...

I know!! Believe me, it makes absolutely zero sense to us either!! Like FFS...it almost defeats the whole purpose of having quadrants in the first place... I wish I had some sort of uniquely local knowledge to explain it, but I've got nothin'... ... Breaking News - we finally have an...

Hmmmmmmmm...maaayyybbbbeeeee... Did anybody spill state secrets to an enemy state or entity that we are currently in an official state of war with, though? Because treason is a pretty specific charge in the CC, requiring some pretty specific conversations to be had with some pretty specific...

Edmonton ran a pilot project a few years ago that had an EMT or higher set up shop in emergency rooms across the city. If a patient couldn't be admitted right away, ambulance crews could leave up to 6 patients per emergency room medic. It helped get crews back on the road while offering the...

I have so many questions... Eyes going wide and jaw hanging open in amazement... You guys actually had Ghostbuster cars!!?? As ambulances!?? Holy shit that's cool!! Like DAMN COOL. I still can't believe my eyes right now 😳💥😳 And then wait...your paramedics also drove crown vics!?? They...

I'm glad to hear that's the case! Last I was in the UK was only for 3 days back in...end of August-ish? And life seemed a wee bit tense at the time, with police & protests that seemed nearby regardless of where we went. (I was only in Newcastle tho, as it was a quick stop to see family for a...

RIP Kirkhill... 😞 It sucks that Godzilla got ya. I didn't see that coming either...

There is when one stops to envision the kind of world the EU parliament wants to create for itself... Force so much multiculturalism into everyday society that countries lose their sense of unique identity. It's a key pillar of success if one wants to create a 'one world government' or a...

Can't say I agree with you on a few things here... Regardless of whether people like Trump or not, and regardless of what he says - the United States is still our next door neighbour. They are still our biggest trading partner. And they are still a critical defense partner, re NORAD Trump will...

Just playing devil's advocate/conspiracy theorist here... (sorry guys, it just comes to me) Do these kinds of polls exist as a means of the government to measure/monitor how effective it's propoganda machine is working? And with a $300M increase in it's already large budget to $1.9 billion...

Our policy was return to station to restock & clean the unit, but the ambulance bays at the hospitals ended up being where we would do that for the most part Restock any meds & IV lines used. Clean the unit. (Usually one medic would do that while the other medic had to stay with the patient...

Now THAT is something I hadn't really considered...

Sounds like a good posting :) In Edmonton we were all over the city. In theory, the city was broken down into districts. And each district was broken down into zones. And in theory, we were supposed to stay within our assigned zone. In reality, our dispatch system (CADS) had us all over...

When I was working as a medic for AHS, we had fights in the back of ambulances all the time 4.18 per 1000 calls sounds like a massive underreporting problem. 4.18 per 100 calls I would say seems exceptionally low - unless patients in Toronto are just exceptionally better behaved than...

So no word of a lie, I had Christmas dinner with a guy who works for the NSA. (The fact that I can honestly say that still kinda blows me away tbh - was quite the unexpected treat) Without wanting to say too much out of respect for both potential OPSEC & PERSEC reasons, we did learn the...

So this has gone completely under my radar until just now... What's the issue with Tik Tok in Canada? How is it a national security threat? (My girlfriend & I have a TikTok account where I dub my voice over what I'm pretty sure my dog is saying to us, and we film these short silly imaginary...
