There is a medical portion of your recruitment process. You will have to indicate certain illnesses, surgeries and any medications on a form. The medic will then ask questions and create a medical profile that is sent to Borden (I believe?) Ottawa to be reviewed by a medical officer. The medical...

Holy crap! How often do you hear that said? Next, Layton will be excommunicated by the Pope!

Do not rely on the advice of your own doctors with regard to who the Forces should or shouldn't accept. I've had to get forms and letters from three doctors and likely a fourth after I go through laser eye surgery and they knew next to nothing about recruitment medical procedures. Hell, they...

Well, I just watched Linda McQuaig of the Star on Michael Coren today. She had three members of the Afghan community sitting across the table from her state undeniably that Canadian Troops should and need to stay to provide security. The only thing she could come up with to justify troop...

Putting up a web storefront with a real-time shopping cart will also expand your market. Ex-members and other regimental family have access to your swag wherever they are. The greatest considerations would be set-up, product photography, and shipping procedures. Software ranges from high end...

You know, sometimes I think that lawyers purposefully word things in an ambiguous way so that lawyers can make more money arguing what they mean. It would've been so easy to put "photo identification" in there somewhere and make it unambiguous.

Yup, kinda symbolic all-around. While Toronto declines in all aspects, other cities are becoming modern Meccas. Toronto uninspiring architecture ranges from the absolutely dated (skyline) to the absolutely idiotic (ROM crystal and OCAD building).

Now that would be a protest. Could you imagine the outrage of all those left-wingers having their conference interrupted?

Moss Park Armoury. 130 Queen St. East. Both units parade and have their Regimental HQs there. Over your reserve career, you would train in a variety of places. Moss Park, Fort York Armoury, Downsview, Meaford, Borden, and/or Petawawa. The QOR also has a company in Scarborough.

FYI: Airborne "company". A division is made up of several brigades commanded by a Major General. A company is made up of 2 or more platoons and commanded by a Major. The last time I was at CFRC Toronto (April), the 48th were actively looking for recruits while the QOR were not hiring. I'm...

Another resource you might consider is an old Ghost Recon modder who created "Canadian Operatives". His name is Bajabravo and his skins were absolutely incredible. I'm not sure if this link is still relevant but here it is anyway. Maybe you can get in contact with him...

Hmm... "JesseWZ".... or JessiWV?! Dan dun dannnnnnnn.

What about a permanent wreath? That is a universally solemn symbol and might put the memorial in proper context for visitors. You don't see people hanging off the Cenotaph in Toronto like monkeys.

I rest my case. I suppose Toronto police were officially cheering for Argentina too. Gimme a break. What possible motivation would the cops have for using a taser or pepper spray other than to pacify unruly individuals who just lost the most important game of their lives and let it get to their...

Some of things being said by Chileans and "Chilean-Canadians" are absolutely ridiculous: The "anglo-saxon" Toronto police are racist. They "brutally" attacked the soccer players and Chilean journalists who were just doing their jobs. "Chilean-Canadians" are ashamed to be Canadian. In the same...

I wonder how many of them would become collaborators?

That's right. Because it's only ok for the decals to have a political message, as long as it's the one you support.

A bit of a retraction here: Janet Davis voted in favour for the first vote. She did not vote in the second vote. Pam McConnell refused to vote despite having a nephew who returned home from Afghanistan injured.

NIMN, I have this one... You're a zombie. An imperialist, capitalist, democracy-defending, monarchist, machine-loving, camouflage-wearing sucker in the employ of evil plutocrats. Your educations and experience means nothing to us because everything western sucks. Now where's the hordes of...
