Out of curiousity, what are the number of females in the Reg infantry? I was involved in putting through one of the first mixed platoons in battle school. In all, it took dozens of female candidates before one finally passed. If I had one cent for every hour spent discussing the topic at the...

If you read the post in context, it should be clear I was referring to the small-l liberal. Perhaps I shouldn't have capped the L. That said, the CBC, especially at election time, takes on the roll of unabashed Liberal Party supporter. Nothing wrong with that, but they use your and my tax...

Most true conservatives realized later on in the Mulroney years that, although they introduced financial legislation that has been overall benificial for the country (Free Trade, GST), as a whole, the senior leadership was as corrupt as the Liberal Party of today. That is why voters such as...

Hmmm....He didn't get their attention with the group hugs or his rendition of Coom-by-ya? That sure must have been one heck of a presentation. Methinks either something got lost in the translation or someone wasn't paying too close attention. That said, it is fortunate that our military is...

RR, What you fail to realize, is that a culture of entitlement that exists among the Liberal Elite in this country. Just like Mr. Dingwall's "I'm entitled to my entitlements" comment. In this case, there is a percentage, albeit a very small percentage, of Canadians who quite enjoy the CBC...

For the record, low income earners are well taken care of under the Conservative plan. The ideological selling point with the Conservative plan is that, as a family with a stay at home parent, my tax dollars are not going to subsidize a two income, $120,000 a year family with their childcare...

Help me out then. I know the Conservative platform quite well (I've read the web site), and I can't find a single issue that would qualify as a big leap ideologically. I consider myself a strong fiscal conservative, a strong environmentalist and a social moderate. The gay marriage thing could...

Funny. Former Prime Minister Kim Campbell stated in the 1993 election that a General Election was no time to discuss serious issues, and she was pilloried by all sides. Not that I generally disagree with the statement, but, by and large, issues such as immigration and how the Constitution is...

Calling all Ontarians. What is up with Ontario voters? I am so very confused by the lack of a public uproar over the Gomery findings. Although by the narrow scope of the inquiry, Martin was 'vindicated', there is no question of the culpability of the Liberal Party in using stolen funds to help...

Wow, Mr Ape. Strong views. Two questions: Do you actually receive FOX news, or are you just parroting beliefs from others of your ilk that hold your same views? Have you ever voiced similar concerns over Canada's taxpayer funded Liberal propaganda machine, the CBC?

All I know is that we had better attain our immigration goal of 1% of our population annually (as per Liberal policy) or our economy will soon collapse. Why, just look at Ireland, Sweden and Switzerland with their 0% population growth. Sarcasm aside, the requirement for increased immigration...

Precisely, This movie could just as well been about the Canadian Army. Take any three year period in an infantry battalion (preferably with an operational tour), take three years worth of 'off the wall incidents', attribute them to all the same soldier or to soldiers in his section, add a great...

And then, only with parental permission

Hmmmm.....This is something new. A politician who refuses to address an editorial board that in turn spreads an opinion to thousands of readers? Either he's very poor at his new chosen profession, or the request did not go through the appropriate chain of command. I would guess the latter...

It's time for a new editorial. How about one berating the Liberals for their blatant theft of tax dollars, and when caught, their offer to repay pennies on the dollar? Or perhaps criticize how about during the last election, the Liberals deliberately misrepresented the Conservative defence...

The movie is restricted. If you are going to see it, leave the kids at home. Perhaps the main thing that makes the movie so crappy and so completely inappropriate for kids is the blatant sexual content. From a scene where the main character masterb@tes to the constant sexual (and homosexual)...

STOP!!!.....Take the idea of seeing this movie out of your head....DO IT NOW!....Good....Now place it on the ground....Now slowly step back....Further....Good....Now turn around and RUN!!! Just saw this piece of crap and I want the last two hours of my life back. I can't recall seeing a movie...

By acceptable personality, you mean of course a leader who hails from either Ontario or Quebec.....

As a police officer, when someone really screwed up, the analysis would always commence with "I can't really judge how I would perform, because I wasn't there"....and then you'd go on to critique the performance based on your experience in similar situations, and the facts as detailed by...

Blue Max, your synopsis is well done. It took me years to find a forum where fellow Canadians hold my view that Dallaire is nothing but a feeble minded bum, unfit to wear even a boy scout uniform. His apologists talk of the big picture, using cliches to justify their arguments. Fact is, at...
