Or you can just safely clear the firearm like the 2 million civilian firearms owners who don’t have negligent discharges into their neighbours homes who don’t have ballistic traps or anywhere near the amount of training a RCMP officer has.

Do we need weekly or monthly training? Why not just send people on courses until they hit OFP then afterwards courses become optional. Have 1 month mandatory training in the summer, time guaranteed off. Before the month they have DLN courses to take during the year to deal with most the...

These two statements contradict themselves. Without healthcare you have nothing. Why would you trust some greedy corporation with your life when it has been shown time and time again they will do whatever they can to make money at your expense. I don’t know if you have ever dealt with...

I suspect it might be the beginning of NATO 2.0 sans USA.

Just remember British climate, women, and food caused them to found a empire spanning 1/4th of the globe… all to avoid being at home.

Preventative maintenance (and predictive maintenance is even better) always saves money long term. The problem is the higher initial cost and all these ‘professionals’ who get put in charge of departments, cut costs by switching to breakdown maintenance, and then for a number of years everything...

We have a saying where I work, we don’t have the time to do it right, only the time to do it twice (or more). Halfassing things is a Canadian tradition, we don’t like putting the effort in needed to get the result in the first place and will often pay more for a lesser product by time...

I mean it could be reunified today… just as part of GB

Exactly, I am a believe it when I see it type guy, especially with the boy who cried wolf as president.

Now I know very very little about Yemen and their civil war, but is the terrain and location much more practical for manoeuvre warfare? Could the US Gulf War 1 the Houthis and regain control of the coastline at least? Looking at a topographic map the central part is mountainous, but the coast...

That glass jaw exists when those wars were fought far away against non-strategic threats. Canada cutting off power is both local and critical to them. That is the type of war they see to the end.

Doesn’t matter how pervasive that belief is, rather whether it is wrong or not. Currently Canada does lack the military required to protect our sovereignty. We can talk about cutting off power or oil all we want, but if the nation to the South with the most powerful military on the planet...

The US loves slave labour. It is a large part of the reason they have the illegal immigrant problem they have. I agree on holding other countries to the same standards, been arguing it for years. It is only fair in a free market. If I can’t legally make that product in Canada the same way with...

Was American, decisions made before 47 took power. Now it being in a blind trust it can be composed of anything. Plus even if he was able to trade now, who is to say investing American is how he would go. Do you think we shouldn’t be trying to diversify Canada’s trade considering America seems...

We also had brewers relocate some operations to Canada as well, best example being Sour Puss, which was American made but majority Canadian consumed.

The main thing which draws most into Cadets is the fact it is a free program. Yeah the later stuff might drive a few to achieve it, but you can change it up and offer some alternative or just not. If the main goal is to try and get troops out of it, then we shouldn’t have it as a competing...

They maybe currently CAF members, but there is no bonafide occupational requirement for them to be. Seeing as there is no universality of service for them they shouldn't be CAF members, let alone commissioned officers. DND employees? That would make sense like all other civilians who work...

Just remember the Republicans are the so called ‘guardians of the constitution’… then proceed to violate all it stands for when it isn’t convenient for them.

I have met officers in the CAF who are only officers because they got their commissioning scroll through being a CIC officer and couldn’t have been in that position otherwise. To me they shouldn’t be commissioned, there is no need. Being a commissioned means the ability to command troops...
