    London teen dedicated to peace

    Martin spouts off worse things in the counter website in rebuttal to pro-military arguments. For example, he compares CF recruiters to child predators and mentions paedophilia. He also contends that Nazis should not be allowed free speech and uses this argument as a basis for why the CF should...

    London teen dedicated to peace

    I believe it to be far more insidious than this. If you look deeper, you will find one of the admins of Martin's Facebook group "Student Network Against Recruitment in London" to be one David Heap. David Heap happens to be a professor of Linguistics at The University of Western Ontario and based...

    URINE Questions

    What are you, a vampire?  ;D My last medical was about a year ago and I submitted to a urine test but didn't have to provide blood.

    Forces struggling to recruit...

    When I joined in '88, I went in to the recruiter (Moss Park) a total of three times - one being to hand in my application. The second time, I did all my tests. The third, I had my interview and then I was sworn in on the spot. After I was sworn in, I waited ten minutes before my Lt. arrived and...

    ILLITERATE - NOT AN OPTION

    Isn't this whole thread akin to a Brailled "Wet Paint" sign?  ;D

    All Things Red Poppy Merged Thread (sales, copyright, usage, bans/restrictions, etc.)

    Is this some sort of miscommunication with regard to the original news piece? The way I'm reading it is that the "offender" used a copyrighted logo of the Legion and not a some royalty-free artistic representation of a poppy, a photograph of a poppy or the word "poppy". If it was the Legion's...

    All Things Red Poppy Merged Thread (sales, copyright, usage, bans/restrictions, etc.)

    As a graphic designer, I can understand copyright issues on logos, combination marks etc. The government of Ontario has a stylized trillium that shouldn't be used boundlessly. As for the sentiment factor, the solution is simple. Option one: render your own poppy. The shape is open to individual...

    My Obstacles to Joining the Canadian Infantry

    Keep a stiff upper lip, Hoot! I've been trapped in a kafkaesk, bureaucratic nightmare for nigh 2.5 years. I even had a General order me not to give up. I figure, after my ordeal, trade qualification will be an anti-climax to my swearing in.  ;)

    The hour

    George S. is a smart guy but needs to refine his interview style big time. He tries too hard to be like John Stewart but is bereft of comedic ability, talks too fast in a mumbly tone, wears stupid clothes, genuflects before his guests and imparts information like it's gospel. He comes across...

    Truth Duty Valour

    The dates don't seem to jive. I saw the artillery episode last week and the clearance divers this week. The production value is 10x better this season and worthy of being shown on any channel. They thankfully did away with the repetitive music of the previous seasons. They also use archive...

    'Indian Summer' Movie about Oka Crisis

    One of the most glaring things to strike me was when a camera was following a marching trooper being repeatedly punched and slapped by a hysterical native woman yelling, "they're beating us, they're beating us! Can't you see? They're beating us!" There were other native women following in tow...

    The School Funding Thread- Merged

    What about one completely public system that has voluntary religious classes outside of normal school hours? This would serve all parties in the following ways: 1. No more talk of segregation - catholic goes to school with muslim who goes to school with atheist who goes to school with shinto 2...

    The School Funding Thread- Merged

    Unfortunately for Tory, his policy isn't flying in Ontario. Something like 70% against. Whether it becomes the major election issue remains to be seen. I think he is in tough in Don Valley West. If you go by lawn signs it's about 8-2 for Wynne.

    The School Funding Thread- Merged

    How ironic is it that I may have to vote against the PCs because they might actually keep this promise. Unfortunately none of the other parties have the balls to abolish the Catholic system. McGuinty is the ultimate hypocrite. He spouts of buzzwords such as "segregation" yet he went to Catholic...
