    British Military Current Events

    Well yeah losing the entire sub continent of India and half of Africa will probably reduce your ability to recruit and also the military requirement.

    All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

    Yup, some are granted way more governmental power than they should, even though they drain the govt coffers. Looking at you PEI and New Brunswick with your lowest voter to seat ratios in confederation.

    Quebec existed before Canada, seperatists there point a distinct cultural heritage and have some arguments about protection of its culture Alberta was created to make administering the NWT easier and the seperatists there want to pay less taxes, and based on some reporting have fewer brown...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Back in the mid 2000s I did my BMQ in the RCMP PRTC in Chilliwack. Guys did SQ there as well.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Hmm not much training area, dated infrastructure, hours from a real air port? Sounds like an ideal location for a training base. I wish that was sarcasm

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    I get the issue with those who often carry them being the worst trained - certainly the executive course of IBTS is something weve all seen happen. I would suggest though that if the threat is such you dont need a readied weapon - and your worried your soldiers and officers can't handle them...

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    Expertise and able to handle it safely aren't the same thing. One doesnt need to be an expert to keep the weapon holstered. Sure but again thats a training failure. Should we adopt our policies based on the expectation that we won't actually conduct mandated annual refresher training? Again...

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    If you do the training package that the C22 mandates, it's fairly robust and should result in comfort with a readief pistol. That said I reiterate the issue is that we should begin training with a pistol on the assumption you'll carry it loaded and readied. The problem becomes now we have to...

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    I would actually hazard a guess and say the CAF is probably the only organization in the country that doesnt begin pistol training with the pistol in the holster, to include the load ready drill ending with a return to holster.

    CAF MP SUES DND AND SIG SAUER

    Every police service in the country does this. Manual safeties are largely seen as obsolete one combat hand guns. Glocks use a trigger safety for example. A pistol should be bolstered with a round chambered. That keeps anything beyond the shooter from operating the trigger. Frankly if Brink's...

    New Army Badge

    If you did something from 1869 to 1949 that obviously makes it more important than what you did from 1949 to 2026, the 3 year difference is critical.

    New Army Badge

    the Commonwealth Prime Ministers Conference decided to drop the title of Dominion in 1949. That supersedes the 1867 act. Its been moved on from, is no longer in use, and holds 0 meaning legally or culturally.

    New Army Badge

    "Dominion" has be scrapped from Federal law since 1951 and it stopped being relevant in 1931. The last piece of it all died with Canada Day was officially renamed in 1982. It doesnt appear in law, or the constituation here or in Britain. The UK refers to Canada as a Realm of the Commonwealth.
