As re-tweeted by The Daily Show on Twitter (@TheDailyShow): "Westboro just picks whatever's trending & jumps in the spotlight. Would protest Rebecca Black except everyone would actually support them." >:D
That said, I f***ing hate this "church." I just take a level of comfort in knowing that...
With everything these people protest, you have to wonder their viewpoints on this: http://forums.milnet.ca/forums/threads/100030/post-1029184.html#msg1029184 >:D
Actually, that's not totally accurate. As the crime he was charged with was a sexual offence, it could show up on a VSS. When working with youth, the elderly or disabled persons, if a pardoned offence shows up on a VSS, this can be grounds to refuse. The VSS process is actually in place to...

As has been said on here before, there's no way to know until 1 Apr when some things may open up and numbers may change. Until that date arrives, everything is speculation and no one can answer your question.

Just read this article (from 23 Feb). The RCO for Central Region has stated that the policies will be changed, since "the senior leadership have come to accept ... that there are certain offences that even with a pardon, the adults...
The way screening of Civilians goes can go in two different ways with the CCO.
[list type=decimal]
They are screened by DND and become Civilian Instructors. These people are under the direct auspices of DND, can do some courses and are paid for at least some of the days worked.
They are screened...
If this was 2010 or 2011, that shouldn't have happened (I can't speak with certainty prior to that). The Canadian Forces EXPRES Operations Manual, 4th edition states on page 38:
In this instance, the push-ups should have just not counted.
WRT the navy fitness test, the PSP website still shows...
As far as the black parade comment, I'd point to Joliet, Illinois as an example. Their annual Black Pride Parade and Picnic is to "promote positive aspects of the African American community." I looked into this parade a bit I've seen no binding point to suggest a specific culture. Other than...
I agree with what you're saying here. At the same time, black people too have many cultures, yet we still see parades that are called "black pride parades" which are for the sake of "being black." I do not object in the least to culturally based parades; rather I fully support them as a...
I'm definitely with TV on this one. There is no reason that one need be more inherently racist than the other. If one can't say "white pride parade" to talk about a pride with a genuine pride in one's heritage, what can they call it? Are we too say that because the person is white that they're...

As TV said, as a species, we tend to pride ourselves and segregate ourselves based on the very things we are not supposed to discriminate by. The fact that a certain group suffered oppression for years in the past (and sadly still do sometimes today) is an absolute travesty that (at least in the...
Canada at war with Libya

Stephen Harper is giving fighter pilots a green light to fire when necessary against Moammar Gadhafi's regime. The sanction comes as a coalition of countries started using force to prevent the North African dictator from killing more of...
