I find it odd that some of the publications seem to be trade publications, or publications that have limited circulation by their very nature (e.g. the x3 CAA magazines and "Tactics" which is about commercial real estate). Is the intent of this fund "to have access to diverse and reliable...

Methinks a precedent was set with this for a certain gentleman recently found guilty of Instruction of Justice. If not, we have an honour problem.

OK...so let's not incorporate religious institutions in our counter-insurgency training and see how that goes...

Stopped by NDHQ recently, and apart from some military members it seemed like a ghost town. I thought it would be buzzing with the new minister. Is this because of the move to Carling, or is this a lingering effect of Covid? My base is mostly back at work, so kind of curious as to your opinions why.

I'm not really sure how Khadr "will suffer very significant harm" if the USSC allow the commission to proceed, and then overturn its findings...Probably hyperbole.

Yes. To completely echew physical contact with others is a type of paranoia. For those who feel otherwise, I'm selling transparent plastic bubbles, starting at $999.99!

There were reports of internal codes of conduct in 2007 for the TB. Nothing new, except perhaps for Al Jazz.

Lol..you nailed it right there...when is spending any money on clothing worthwhile, except for operational clothing? If changes to DEU are to take place, it should happen slowly over a period of years to minimize costs.

Probably lots, unfortunately. There seems to be a misunderstanding as to the role of intelligence services - they are not police. They are services designed to provide decision makers with information upon which to base their decisions. The Khadr saga has been unfortunate in that courts are...

Ah uniforms...a minefield of meaning and perception. I believe most politicians, Liberal/Conservative, view Unification as a mistake for multiple reasons. I think the solution is ultimately to go back to uniforms that tie the CF to its history. The Navy and Air Force DEU are pretty good...

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. Saw it at 3am around Christmas four years ago. Just terrible. Wickerman, both the original and remake, were pretty bad as well.

I for one am not really sweating this...a bunch of ignorant pundits blabbing on at 3 in the morning do not constitute a serious threat to Canada's international standing, especially since two are really professional comedians without a military background, one a mediocre print journalist, and...

Um...ok...having played that game, I don't remember any points where shooting somebody would be a violation. I don't recall a single civvy or protected person running around. Lol..maybe the parents have a very pacifist-oriented view of the Geneva Conventions, and think you can't shoot at the...

The Army would be the best dressed element if we ditched the stupid 1970s American-style dark-green DEU tunic and went to something more accustomed to our heritage and climate, like a khaki tunic. Sorry about the rant - I'm sick and tired of standing in that thing in the sun on grad parades.

This story has been provoking some pretty brutal comments online about border guards. But a few reminders: 1) We don't have the guard's side of the story; 2) Customs officials have every right to ask you to perform certain tasks in order to be given the priviledge to enter their country, and...

I've been a little distrubed how here in Canada some security firms are adopting uniform items normally reserved for real peace officer (ei the trouser stripe). I also recently heard that a man out west kidnapped a young girl by impersonating a police officer. As much as this needs to be...

Hello Rice, I just read the guy's blog...he's so ideologically brainwashed that I don't think it's worth bothering trying to reason with him on his blog. You're more than welcome to wrestle a pig in the mud, just remember that the pig likes it. A better solution would be to target his election...

Remember, Pakistan has nukes!

As a non-citizen landed foreign national, this gentleman should shut his mouth and lobby for political aims in his own country, not for his personal preferences in another. Isn't there a law against foreigners interfering with our elections?

Just a comment - there was a Warder when I was there with a CD...said he was PPCLI and a former Sgt/WO...no more than a year ago...
