Lighthouses.....with big 'effin' missiles pointing out of them.  That will make the bad man go away.  And more Twin Otters, and, and,............

Actually those comments explain how the Canadian government, regardless of team colour, is able to get away with their deficit of defense spending.  Canadians, in the majority, do not give two anal massages about their military IF it means that their guvermint entitlements maybe cut or held...

Given the mount of criticism Kinsella heaped on Trudeau during the leadership race (his man Garneau) and the election and continues to on his twitter,  Kinsella is very much an outsider in his own party.

If you go back to the original study in 1995, pellet gun injuries are included.  Also included in the stats is any emergency room or doctor assisted injury involving a firearm, IE; slam your finger in your SKS and go to emerg, you are a gun injury stat.  Got M1 Garand thumb and go to emerg, you...

And thus 500 Sherman tanks are replaced by 250 Centurion tanks which are then replaced by 114 Leopard I tanks and finally 65 Leopard II tanks.  My numbers maybe a little off but the jest is the same.  Of course, the government allows a little overlap between new and used kit so that the...

Still a year away, I like to do my DAdmin before I get too old to think coherently.......

When NATO was formed in 1949, it was divided into military spheres of influence.  In each sphere, the minor nations had to deploy equipment that marched the ammo and spares of the lead nation.  This was the first step to NATO standardization of ammo and equipment.  We were in the US sphere and...

Under 9 PMs and I agree with you, Heck, our problems started with NATO in 1949 and the "sphere of American Influence" forcing us to give away all our equipment to nations in the "sphere of UK influence".  We are still trying to catch up.

Hope he rots in hell and I hope the dozens of New Yorkers who watched a bleed black man pass them on the sidewalk join him in hell. 

Anything out on this yet?  I am an pre NVC vet with 13% assessment.  34 years service.

Which works out to an expected 55 million, la drop dans la bucket!  Nothing in this budget makes any sense.  it's like a five year old is punishing people who don't like him and rewarding people who do like him.

Yup, he got it right, saying bad things about a religion makes bad things happen by the adherents of the religion.  Look at the continually roasted Jehovah Witnesses, the mayhem they create in the streets..........  Don't forget Mormons and their drive to turn the world into Utah.

We are protected by the most powerful navy in the world and we don't pay a dime for it...............

you missed the tweet by one woman who said her neighbours had been bombed by Canadian troops overseas and were very traumatized by seeing Canadian troops in the streets.

I concur and a more Canadian face to our regiments as well, we are well past the point of identifying with highlanders, lowlanders, Irish, Riflemen (in traditions sense) or Light Infantry (in the traditions sense).  Nothing wrong with Canadian Territorial Regiments based on Provincial Names...

To clarify, I was speaking of the 4 RRS (The Highlanders) who continue the traditions of 3 former regiments. The Royal Regiment of Scotland Regular consists of 7 battalions, each battalion has a variation in costume according to it's adopted history and traditions: The Royal Scots Borderers...

Talked to the local SSF vet here in Saint John and he said the movie was a lot of hooey.  Both sides had some bad soldiers but most of them were weeded out very quickly in training.  He said the type of work did not lead to success for ill disciplined soldiers from either nation.  Also the bar...

What assets of value would the US have in a country that has nationalized every industry?  Nationalizing a fast food chains there would have little effect as those rely heavily on their US supply chain.  They could force US citizens working there to stay beyond their contracts but there is not a...

He REALLY does not understand the foot soldiers of the NDP, that is pretty obvious. 

so....... new vets ID in 2045 then?
