I personally think that overall the western forces are pretty close to reaching their limit with Iraq and Afghanistan and another war with Iran would certainly cause a lot more trouble depending on how things turn out. The bottom line is though that they "did" make threats to our ally Israel and...
I really appreciate the input guys, so far looks like I'll be waiting a little longer for the merit listing. The doc there I forgot to mention it before but a little over a month ago when everything was done I was told I had to be completely off my anti-dep meds. I can't just stop in one day so...
For the anti-depressants (venlaflaxine) I talked with the doctor and it was fine. It was just the forms that had to be signed by the doctor and should be fine unless the forms somehow didn't "reach" him or a form was missing. Well anyways, I'll be calling the doc in the CFRC when he's back on...
So here's my story from application to me being about to be merit listed (as soon as people handling my file get back from holidays x.x)
After working out for 6 months and getting more details I finally decided to put my application through and start on the recruiting process for Reserve...
Yes, sorry for the typo. I'm well aware that we went in for reasons other than for the cause of the citizens and that we are there because we had obligations with NATO, but what we're "doing there now" is the right thing. To stop it, would be a damn fine crime and especially with no one being...
Before we came the Afghanese civilians were being ruled by the Taliban. Civilians didn't really have rights, living conditions were atrocious and the many horrible atrocities the Taliban have made there during their ruling were grim. Afghanistan was one of the last places anybody wanted to be...
I did my CFAT last month and was told that I scored high and that I qualified for all trades and most of them for officer as well. I've decided a while ago to first enter Res. Infantry NCM while I graduate, do a comp. transfer into Reg. Infantry NCM after I finish BIQ and do a contract or...
I'll just mention my running plan for anyone who's interested. Just keep in mind this is going to require a gym and a treadmill.
If you're just starting from a month+ break or... just starting. Concentrate on speed-walking for the first few weeks with a bit of jogging at the end before starting...
This sounds amazing, I hope more information can be released about it soon - but dang, looks like the world just got another millionaire. Thanks to his determination more lives can be saved. What really makes me happy about this is that a Canadian made this invention :cdn:
I hope they have...
I was born in Belarus and have been hearing a lot of pretty over the top news that apparently is true from there. I can't be much more dissapointed and revolted at that country. They're bloody well leading the damn march for reunification of the USSR and participating in a lot of aggressive crap...
Looking over the news and seeing Russia, China and Iran get in so much conflict with the west is pretty worrying. With recent news of Chinas media being cut off from Western News, China having the ability to knock off satellites from the ground and the massive amounts of cash set to modernizing...
When I read over the title I said - "Dear god it's finally happened - the CF is conscripting the awsome power of creativity!" As you can imagine this brought a few chuckles from myself =)
Recent stuff from Linkin Park is pretty damn good, this and nirvana, disturbed, priestess and yaddayadayada. I'm big on the music.

EDIT: Seriously though... listen to it! O.o
I've been very interested in this system since it was first announced and concepts laid down. Right now I'm wondering when Canada can get their hands on some of the prototypes. I'd do just about anything to be one of the people testing this out on-field. The time to process the locations of...
GREAT NEWS!!! ACED IT >=D
I even have Reg. Force Infantry Officer available - now might be transferring into there instead of NCM once I graduate! Things should be moving along pretty fast from the sounds of it save some stuff I've gotta take care of because my relatives are in another country...
I'm in Vancouver BC here, I actually live a few blocks from the Reg. Force CFRC so at least I won't lose too much sleep getting there =)
Alright, I think I've gotta get off now and I'll get back to you once my results are in. Here goes :-X
I was told by my recruiter that I should be able to keep my BMQ/SQ qualifications - but I clarified that I wanted to do the Reg. BMQ instead of the Res. so there may be something up there. I myself am joining the Reserve Infantry and pretty much so I can have an assured acceptance into Reg...
