    Media Bias [Merged]

    I dimly recall this story being on the radio - although not the details.  Either The Current, As It Happens, or perhaps The House. I'll see if I can dig up a reference on the CBC site later today.

    Army.ca Status- The History of Outages & Dark Days

    My experience since last evening has been similar to that described by E.R. Campbell. For the record, I'm on MacIntosh using Firefox.  Mac using Safari is the same. All other sites I've accessed are fine.

    HELP!!! enrolled under rotp, want to switch from Memorial to Dal Help!!

    I fail to understand how Grade 9 "stuff" can cause a Grade 12 graduate to have a hard time.  I imagine it has to do with the surprise involved in facing simple problems, rather than the complex ones you were psyched for. Mech Eng is a hard row to hoe - no matter where you pursue it.  And math...

    Good on ya' - and my wishes of good luck were sincere. What is it about MUN's MPT that makes it "dumb"?

    Kanye West storms MTV Video Music awards and grabs microphone from Taylor Swift

    Who are Kayne West and Taylor Swift?  And why do they matter? Perhaps if more people were as ignorant as me, these individuals wouldn't be provided a public stage upon which to perform their antics.

    Questions about living in barracks after training.

    First - you picked the right forum for your thread. Second - I am out of date and will not speak to the specifics of barracks life, but I will mention that you are about to receive wildly diferring views regarding discipline in the barracks, and food quality on the respective bases.  Suffice to...

    Petawawa Thread- Merged

    The very best advice you'll ever receive.  I was only able to retire when I did because my wife INSISTED that we buy a house as soon as we could scrape up a down-payment (I wanted a Harley, and a boat, and a camper, and, and, and).  Although over the years we did sell houses for less than we...

    Search Problem & Upload Folder Full

    The search problem was noted earlier by another user.  I've sent a PM to Mike regarding it.  The Upload Folder Full thing is news to me. We'll have to wait for Mike to get back to us.

    How to be an Officer? Is it hard? (Reserve)

    It's competitive. Brash is good - just be prepared for the backlash.  You appear to be able to handle it - although personally I think you back-pedalled too fast - you'll learn. I'll let you in on a secret.  I've served in many places (including Afghanistan, if that serves to lend credence to...

    How to be an Officer? Is it hard? (Reserve)

    Emphasis added by Roy Harding. And the REST of his post is spot on - get to a recruiting office and THEN weigh your choices.

    How to be an Officer? Is it hard? (Reserve)

    Like, my Father was a CMA - actually, he was like, an RIA (the prior designation), and he was, like - an excellent corporate leader.  But he never really, like, understood my attraction to like, the Army. I understand accounting - and to be honest, I thought your original question was well...

    Debate, split from: Latest Canadian Honours and Awards Sep 2009

    Outstanding service and dedication is outstanding service and dedication - no matter WHERE it takes place. You may be confusing awards for service with decorations for bravery and valour - the latter of which are extremely rare while employed at NDHQ (but not impossible).

    Packing for Basic [MERGED]

    danteh:  go with whatever feels right.  You'll find out soon enough that even when you're right, you're wrong.  I'm curious though - if the Cpl was such an impeccable source of information, what made you come to this thread for information?  (Don't bother answering). EITS & Cdn Aviator:  drop...

    Switching trade question

    I can't answer your question - I've been out of the loop too long. But, the term you are looking for is "remuster" - not "remost".  This is also known as an "Occupation Transfer", or "OT" - you'll see it referred by all three terms on the forums. Perhaps a search with the correct terms may...

    Nervous

    kratz already said what I was going to.  I will re-emphasize something he already said - you are NOT "already in the Canadian military".  I STRONGLY suggest you read the links he provided. I'll add this to what kratz has said - learn how to use the "shift" key, and lose the MSN speak (to, too...
