The sense of entitlement of students towards a University degree is one thing, however, very few posters have supported that notion.  The majority of persons, however, are concerned with the fact that the cost of a University education, is rapidly moving away from the realm of a student being...

Inevitably the state has to regognize the marriage, and enforce the responsibilities under taken as a result of the marriage contract and thus, will still be in the marriage business.  I would argue this would work best if they did as they do in France, get the church out of the marriage...

I would argue that if anything this is a less docile society than that of the ruling class.  Your idealistic portrayal of Victorian Great Britain, does very little to speak of all of the other social ills, that resulted from having a bunch of inbred sots run the place.  Concepts such as the...

I would disagree, I would say the crux of the argument is morality versus reason.  The moral argument against this lifestyle is don't do it, it's wrong. The rational arguement attempts to explore why it is wrong, or as was the case if it is even wrong to begin with.  There is no rational...

I just finished reading the summary of judgement in the two cases and the court does set out a fairly stringent test for what constitutes criminal indecency.  The legislation, of morality in a modern society has not place, as morality stems from ones one rational thought, then by extension any...

You would be correct, I'm talking about modern turkey, ie post revolutionary Turkey. As for asking Emperor Constantine, meet me in Constantinople with a flashlight and a shovel, and we'll ask him together.

Actually they were moved by the Romans, by your logic perhaps Israel should have been established in the Vatican.  It is generally believed that the remenants of the Jews that stayed in the Levant converted to Islam during the Arab Crusades. Agriculture, has alway been occuring in the Gaza...

The confusion IMHO, came when we switched terms from Orders Parade, to Summary Trial.  Having been a guest of honour at one, it is not a trial, the guilt of the accused is generally not examined (As the saying goes Sgt-Maj, march the guilt bastard in).  The purpose of a Summary Trial is to allow...

Thanks Bruce, I saw that thread, and I myself looked but its kinda of like trying to find a needle in a haystact, between the NDA, CC, Identification of Criminals Act, the Corrections Act, etc.... Not that I'm questioning anyone on the veracity of there assumptions, more I'd like to know out of...

Courts martial have no greater entitlement to the guarantee of rights.  A court martial is a court, complete with judge, rules of evidence, and a guarantee of certain charter protections.  A summary trial is more of a disciplinary proceeding, and whilst deprivation of liberty may constitute a...

Yup...all part of my ongoing campaign to be nominated as the offical Army.ca poet laureate.

Civillian jobs within the Federal Department are staffed by the PSC.  Canex/PSP/NPF fall under CPSA which is a government agency and thus able to conduct its own staffing.

It was always my impression that civillian jobs within the Department of National Defence are staffed by the Public Service Commision of Canada.  www.jobs.gc.ca.  This being the case you wait until a position is posted for external competition, apply for it and if you're screened in you compete...

I know you asked for a number but I'd guess Viscount Bennett was one of them.

I took a course through CLET at Depot that used "Verbal Judo", don't know if it's a trademarked thing or not.  But like noneck said it was pretty much commen snse/

But, to use the sports analogy, nobody says to the farm team, here's a pair of running shoes (olive drab truck) pretend they're a set of skates (an AFV).  The realization has to be made that some amount of investment has to be made in reference to equipment to get the desired product of a "farm...

Then whats the point of spending the money recruiting, and training a crew if you don't have a tank for them to crew?  It sounds pejoritive, I know, but it seems despite policy document after policy document, we are nowheres further to defining what it is we want the reserves to do.  Once that...

But wait a minute, thats....what...oh hold on a sec... My mistake, I'll just go back to my Lada Maintainer Correspondance Course.

It was all tounge in cheek, not intended to give offence. All in all said above it appear that GM does make a Chev Silverado 1500 Hybrid.  But like I said its all new technology there are very reasonable arguments both theoretical, see above, and practical (read the effects of gas prices, were...

Well if you want the opinion of a Mo-ltia guy ;D There is no doubt that one of the factors limiting freedom of action in terms of terrorism in the west it is our dependance on Middle Eastern Oil.  Even if Canada could be self supporting in oil, we do import to replace that which we export.  If...
