Well said!

Oh, it's still there!  No sign of it closing, either (despite the wet status of the area). :nod:

Squeezing a tennis ball helps too.

Kathleen Wynn is an MPP, and therefore was elected.  The Premier, like the Prime Minister, is never elected except as an MPP. That said, I have a feeling there will be an early election.  It is a minority government...

I like the idea of a bar on the QDJM for military issue.  I see a problem with this though: Let's take the no bar scenario:  Cpl Bloggins is awarded a QDJM from his local MP for his stellar work in the community (whatever it might be).  Let's say his CoC wants to award him one for being  the...

Recently tried bacon butterscotch cookies. Dee-lish!! :nod:

Reviving an old thread here, but I think the original topic applies... Mods, if you disagree, please feel free to place where appropriate. I found this article today: http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/2011/10/28/18890976.html

Here is a link to the official order of precedence.  Notice that provincial awards are included, but only near the end: http://www.gg.ca/document.aspx?id=71 The Ontario Police and Firefighters' bravery medals are included, and I think it likely that the Paramedic version will join them...

There are plenty of police officers that are also reservists!  I'm sure a search of this site will reveal more info. Shift work means you won't be able to make all training opportunities during your career, but that doesn't keep you from contributing to your unit, and having a rewarding career...

arushbhai, Tor Scots are based in Etobicoke, but also have a presence in Mississauga. Those who live in Mississauga parade there, though usually only after finishing their infantry training.  Until then, it's Etobicoke (and wherever your courses take place).  Talk to the recruiter to get...

In Ontario, the Lieutenant Governor hosted a ceremony/reception titled “ Presentation of the first poppy” earlier today.  As far as I know, such an event marks the time when others may begin to wear a poppy.

jewalsh, "Any other MS or MCpl who was thrown into a PO1 / WO position with only four months in rank who had to supervise 33 people at one time and was responsible for 50 people want to respond to my thread. Oh wait there is not another MS/MCpl who had to do that. " Been there, done that...

Nope, The unit issues the kilt, and the fact that the tunic is "cut away", means that you couldn't wear issued pants even if you aquired some.  That would look pretty silly. Closest thing is a set of trews, but as far as I know, most units do not issue (or wear) them for parades.  D
