    T.O. judge orders Christmas tree out of lobby

    This does tick me off.  I am a non Christan, and i have no quams about decorating trees, bushes, buildings and etc.  I do have a problem, when others view such time aged decisions on a silly merit.  but that's just me.

    Inside the Toronto Police Emergency Task Force (CTV news)

    If i may get back to the original topic.  ( congrads on reaching 6000 BTW)  There is a huge difference between the types of citizens delt with.  In Texas almost everyone carries a gun.  in some parts it is mandatory.  So there it is imperative to do a dynamic entry due to the fact that...

    Should the Canadian Coast Guard be armed?

    It can be done,  I have been part of the 32 bdg domestic responce team for many years.  and i jokily say i did more work for the OPP and toronto police then i did for the army.  Not every member has to be a peace office, as long as there is a good ratio of a peace officers supervision.

    Should the Canadian Coast Guard be armed?

    Yes i know that the navy res has crews at the "ready"  but it would help the CF as a whole if we had the same law as they do in the states.

    Should the Canadian Coast Guard be armed?

    there is one slight big problem in using resv members.  they are for a most part, part time. ( not to be insulting)  And they have other jobs.  Here in Canada there is no law protecting their jobs, after a military stint.  Such a law would be great and would give the gov alot of members that...

    LSVW what happened?

    By design the Ml should have oil through the bearings.  It is an oiled lube design from day one.  The reason why we Greece them now is because the fleet doesn't move as much, so greasing them stopped the parts from rusting solid.  Which would actually improve the stupid park brake.  We should...

    LSVW what happened?

    I do agree that everyone complains about the kit that is issued.  We are Canadian, its our past time.  But when I am changing and engine with in 2 weeks of delivery, there is an issue.  The LS is a POS  no doubt.  and nothing can be done about it now.  The MILCOT Idea is a great idea.  For one...

    "Men's"/whatever "Christmas"/whatever Dinner (merged)

    As a Jewish soldier i never did mind it being called the men's xmass dinner.  Because of the traditions, and the history behind it.  At times i was the one who decorated the christmass tree.  However it is a new age, and PC is the norm.  And in my view why to strict at times.  Let it stay as the...

    Ex Valiant Guardian @ Wainright

    I thought (knew) that they planned to end the resv courses to tie into to the CAC/ARC Exs for that reason.  but i guess times change, when the entire military is over tasked.  lol
