Which is what scares me if the conservatives bring this government down i think they may actually lose more seats in the next election and give the liberals the majority.  they will win the East with Nfld and NS and more in quebec and Ont will stay red and if they gain any in Man or BC the Cons...

Don't think it will be the budget that brings this government down think the same sex marriage stuff and kyoto accord may play into it soon.  I think it may actually give the liberals a majority if it happens.  Scary i know but then we may be screwed over even worse.  Only time will tell. 

Actually the liberals don't have that much support in BC

The MGS may be a political pill he is swallowing in order to get the other things off of the wish list needed to better the forces. Tanks can be bought at any time and little training would be needed the helos and aircraft and ships would years away from completion and have to be pushed through...

Zipper i know you are going to say you are a realist and not a pesimist, but in this world you are either moving or dying.  Sure you are right, at this time the forces is in a state of decline, moral in some areas is bad and equipment is old and in desperate need of replacement. But Infanteer is...

But in today's military it is not what it used to be.  PMQ are run down and shacks aren't what they should be.  Most bases are near large urban centers where rent is much more expensive.  And even when they move a base to a smaller community that community raises its prices to take adavantage of...

You have to realize we pass most of our opinion on what the press tells us.  we are lucky in Canada that we have a half decent press that is not as biast as the one to our neighbour to the south.  I still feel this lawsuit is frivolous.  Even if information was provided to the Syrian...

As for the Khdar family, there is the door. We do not have the same beliefs as you, nor do we tolerate the kind of biggotism that you are so flagrantly displaying. BYE! or Flush and swirl! wait wait don't forget to write so we know how your family is doing at the terror camps in Iran

The first link is old news to which the PM has already responded to by saying no troops in Iraq.  Jordan maybe but not Iraq. The second link was not working when i tried maybe my computer did not like it but i could not read it at all.

I think it will be more along the lines of a light infantry Bat.  Leave bringing the heavy stuff to a nation that has that capability.  Unless of crse we lease another couple of planes to do the work for us.  but i will leave that topic to the post it belongs in. The UN will not do squat in...

I could not have said it better myself. They use our own societies rules against us while adhere to none.  When you show up to fight and the bell goes i think some of the gloves have to come off or it will never be a fair fight.  This is not to say that we should not abide by the rules of...

And what you plan on solving the worlds problems on public form? it is an opinion post based on the article i mentioned.  Used to stimulate conversation be it good or bad.

Agree with alot of what you said ghost. But  I think Somlia may be the litmist test of abuse scandels and that is why it is always mentioned.

Yes excellent add on. I think we are forgetting that these people are at a military instilation not a federal prision and therefore in my opinion should only be afforded the rights of POWs.  Not that of American citizens.  If (when) a Canadian citizen were to be caught in Iran do think he would...

DFW2T That was an excellent post but to bring it in line with the topic you should have appologized for the fact that their son was captured after throwing a grenade that killed Sgt 1st class Christopher J. Speer. We appologize that you were sent rasied in the world of radical Islam and that...

I think you will see the CF in the SUDAN before you see them in Iraq for the very reason, it would be a political nightmare for the liberals to send troops to Iraq after the election bashing of the conservatives and their "secret agenda" to send the troops there with Bush and Blair's army.  I...

Funny how you can get pounded on for offering an opinion. 

It is amazying how fast rumours fly when it comes down to the dirty dollar.

THe problem is if you start to pick and choose your friends in the world you tend to make enemies quicker from those who you shun.  By not carring what the world thinks you tend to come off (much like the USA) as being arrogant and not a team player. Would it be a bad thing for us to be in IRAQ...

Have to agree with you there.
