    First infantry regular force female LCol.

    There's a Maj at 5 Div (RCR) that has been a couple of years out of the fold to raise her family, but I expect she might be the next to reach that milestone.

    Alberta Schools; pick your own gender and bathroom

    Reread the statement: It doesn't say option for physical activity in another setting.  It says "study," as in sedentary activity. I see where you're going with your point but that's not what was said in the article. As for the rest, I currently don't have a dog in the fight so I don't really...

    Alberta Schools; pick your own gender and bathroom

    And then there's this: So, let's also encourage kids to be lazy.  ::)

    making a murderer

    For me the issue isn't even whether or not he or his nephew are guilty or not. It's more about the issues with the judicial and legal system in that county and how this biases and errors played into the whole ordeal.

    Real Estate Agent in Edmonton

    We went with Albert Kozel.  He's a friend of my husband's from high school and we were really happy with his service.  He's also on the Brookfield list.  Most of the properties he deals with are in the Castledowns and Cumberland area but he has others elsewhere as well.

    Drug use/drug testing in the CF (merged)

    To the OP - No worries.  We tend to take many things here (especially posts by family members, friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc.) with a grain of salt here.  Please don't take any of our skepticism personally.  I would much rather play devil's advocate and get the full story than take...

    Drug use/drug testing in the CF (merged)

    I have to admit, this didn't even cross my mind until you mentioned it.  Looking at the original post even deeper -- what is the general age range to use Tinder?  An older relative would likely refer to what she is doing as 'hooking up with people online.' This does seem a tad specific.  And a...

    Sailor who doubled in size wins disability benefits

    And that's something that the RCN needs to push.  You don't need fancy equipment to get a workout done.  What do you see when you go to Wainwright with the Army?  (Let's pretend that the field amb hasn't also deployed with physio, who always seems to insist on bringing all their ellipticals...

    Sailor who doubled in size wins disability benefits

    So, someone asked this question on another forum. If buddy loses all the weight and suddenly has no issues with hypertension anymore and is no longer at risk of getting Type 2 diabetes (or, if he already has it, ends up being able to manage it without any medication...can't remember from the...

    SYR Refugees to Canada (split fm SYR refugees thread)

    I'm pretty sure that's not how many they accept per year.  That's how many are considered permanent residents at any point in time.  My sister-in-law is part of that number and has been since she immigrated to Canada with her family when she was 2 and that was 45 yrs ago.

    SYR Refugees to Canada (split fm SYR refugees thread)

    I'm going to have to ask where you got those numbers from.  Link please? And remember - temporary visas for students and tourists are completely different than accepting immigrants to stay permanently in Canada.

    SYR Refugees to Canada (split fm SYR refugees thread)

    Except that there are several departments involved and, even with a new government, there is probably still that hesitancy to share between agencies before the full go-ahead is given.

    SYR Refugees to Canada (split fm SYR refugees thread)

    Here's the problem in a nutshell: 1.  The CAF is still under the writ period from the election.  One of the main reasons for this is the extended delay in the ministers sorting out their staff (hires and such) and being able to come out with a comms plan for both the GoC as a whole and then its...

    Canada's New Defence Minister

    I'd say it's pretty safe to say that most of us, as much as we'd like to see the minister confront this guy face to face, are smart enough to know it's not going to happen. ::)

    Canada's New Defence Minister

    Oh yes.  That's the problem with social media, is that people say things about others and never have to face the consequences.  Imagine the culprit meeting the subject of the comments face to face.  I would LOVE to see how he would react in that case.  Probably a serious case of 'cat got his...
