    The Khadr Thread

    I am so sorry for your loss, Hamish - a loss that as Canadians we all share to a certain degree - and I completely agree with you: it AIN'T OK. He's not just a killer, he's a traitor, and our descent into softness on this and similar issues, will, I fear, ultimately be our undoing. :salute:

    Calgary man charged in absentia for terrorism-related activity

    Apparently he is still alive - he gave a Skype interview to Vice News this week. The video is on the Vice News site, and it's infuriating. I'm not a praying man, for the most part, but I'm praying that there's enough electronic signal litter trail from that that the NSA is able to do their...

    Islamic Politics in the West

    Could be an opportunity...to host a cartoon contest across the street.

    The Khadr Thread

    Meanwhile, the National Post is reporting today that the restaurant "Joe Beef" in Montreal has been named one of the world's top 100 restaurants. No word specifically though on whether this was "top 100 overall", or just "top 100 amongst restaurants that offer free meals to terrorists/convicted...

    The Khadr Thread

    I am very surprised that his location (his lawyer's terrorist safe house) is being publicly disclosed. I'd wager that lots of our tax dollars are being spent not only on public safety type surveillance of him, i.e. by CSIS, but also, mis-spent on HVT overwatch for his safety, by EPS or RCMP...

    LCol Erin Savage, CD - The RCMS

    RIP, Ma'am. It was my privilege to have briefly worked with this dynamic individual. The organization will surely miss her.

    Can anyone provide a lead on a (non-shady) download site for this? Thanks in advance.

    It's ok, I'm ok, really....probably just got something in my eye. I'll be fine. Gimme a minute. Wow. That was awesome.

    Islamic Terrorism in the West ( Mega thread)

    Perhaps Mr. Pitt's character in Inglorious Basterds (sic) said it best, re: those wanting to to pay the ultimate price for their country (Nazi Germany, in the case of that film, here substitute "cause" or "twisted belief system"):  "Oblige him".

    General Surgeon in CF

    PteFabulous, a good option to explore might be what was previously called the Health Services Primary Reserve List, now known as 1 Cdn Hosp, Det Ottawa - basically the 'home' unit for all of us Specialist Medical Officers from coast-to-coast.  Being a Specialist MO in the Reserves offers the...

    UK politician arrested after speech quoting PM Churchill's view against Islam

    Had I the resources, I'd happily pay his bail/legal fees. This is censorship/political persecution/selective political correctness at its absolute worst.

    International medical student - CF MO

    Ultimately, only a recruiter can give you a definitive answer. That said, generally speaking there are just two paths: 1) join the CF before med school, they pay the way for med school and Family Practice residency, you begin paying them back with service upon completion of residency, or ...

    International medical student - CF MO

    +1 on what Mike said. In order to get a license, you'd have to complete not only med school, but also a residency in a discipline that the CF recognizes/has open billets for (generally).  Depending on where you're going to med school, getting into a residency that will be acceptable for Canadian...

    +1 on storing them in the freezer. Also, the wide mouth makes cleaning a breeze. IMHO, best reservoirs available.

    Question about possible flexor tendon injury

    This plastic surgeon agrees with medicineman. Seek referral to a plastic surgeon. I'd never make a diagnosis via the Internet, but if you have general questions, feel free to PM me.

    thinking about the military will it help me

    As I'm sure most of the 77 other readers of your post thought, but didn't say :  Entering the recruiting process with the mindset of "what the military can do for you" isn't the way to approach it. That said, listing the litany of prior challenges you've encountered and seeking advice from the...

    Syria Superthread [merged]

    Agree with Jim and all that have echoed that sentiment. Ugly though this may be, it is a Syrian problem, and it begs a Syrian solution....ugly though that will be.
