    pay for flag officers

    There is a list for civil servants at the provincial level who make 6 figures or better that get's published each year. I think it's called the sunshine list or something like that. Not sure if federal level does the same thing or if military members would be included in such a list.

    Peter Mackay wants more praise for Canadian troops

    Hey Peter: Ummm your time could be better spent, someone should sign these guys up for Army.ca accounts where the account is set to read only for the first 6 months, after which time they can begin posting. I am fairly certain that "more praise" is not right at the top of every troops list who...

    The Great Gun Control Debate

    Good point Geo...though I am keeping my fingers crossed that someday just maybe it will go away. I don't have anything too exotic in terms of firearms myself, for me it's watching the money being p!ssed away on this thing that really bothers me.

    Harry and William and their military service.

    Canadian Sea King crashes off Denmark

    So it's just a matter of a piece of equipment that has put in it's time and is showing it's age then. I have a rule I apply when dealing with what the media puts out, believe none of what you "hear", half of what you read and all of what you know. Just seems anytime a Sea King is involved...

    The Next Minister of Defense

    If Mr. Oconnor was across the pond I believe the response to that little note of his would be..... Get Stuffed! Really who cares where they are located. Leave them alone let them do their job, they seem to be pretty good at it.

    Just so you all know if our friends to the south ever get the inkling to start marching northward we may be forced to employ the CBAGS unit from the east coast. Be warned the CBAGS are an unconventional unit known to confuse and bewilder most enemy combatants with a thick accent and an...
