I can't say that I've lived through scarier times. It's almost looking like Trump is looking to bring the State's back to its traditional isolationist stance while causing the world to burn at the same time. The Rubicon in this, is if the States invade Greenland. I'm afraid to see what Putin...

Well, hopefully this distracts Trump from Greenland.

With the conflicts between State and Federal agencies, I'm wondering when we are going to start hearing the topic of State's rights come up.

The issue for many of them is that when they swore in, they joined a particular regiment the same way anyone else would. When Brigade decided to consolidate them all in one location they essentially forced them to essentially switch units. The individual members are theoretically still in their...

I know that some of the FSA/HRA types have released as for some of them, present a lengthy commute, when they had signed up to serve with their local unit.

Or any Class A FSA or HRA. All of the Class B's got pulled away and anyone with a FSA/HRA MOC as well.

Most units in Southern Ontario don't have those positions anymore.

I've heard the argument made that Canada has a Middle-Class military. I can't speak for the Reg Force, but I know a fair number of reservists who own their own business or work in pretty significant executive roles, and not all of them are officers. We are also a very educated military. I...

Given the fact that Santa gets a fighter escort in North America and the current situation in Europe, why does NATO not provide an escort in Europe?

I thought that the Defiant was badly damaged fighting the Borg.

Im not longer in the place in my life where I am regularly applying for jobs, but there would be times I would be tempted to just not mention the fact that I'm reservist, as it is not a protected ground (which it probably should be).

I suppose, although, I wouldn't use that in any recruiting material.

I wouldn't think so, the idea for the Domestic Service Medal is for named domestic missions. All this has done is so disvalue this pin.

Armoured Regiments don't have Battalions, they have Regiments. For example, 1st Regiment, Fort Garry Horse.

If you are referring to the Voltigeurs de Québec, they do have a number of Battle Honours. Are you implying that they are merging English speaking units that are mostly from outside Quebec, with French Speaking units? I would really like to see the justification for amalgating the South...

Let me see if I'm tracking everything according the new plan 86,000 Regular Force 100,000 PRes 300,000 Mobilization Res Canadian Rangers CIC/COATS That's like half a million people. With the authorized since of the PRes increasing by 400%, I wonder if we are going to see any units come off...

Highland and Lowland regiments.

I don't think that the government would touch that with a ten foot pole. A certain parade comes to mind.

So it's essentially the same as the Territorial Battalion Groups that we have now.

Has it actually been in the system that long? How has it not been thrown out?
