What is Canada, exactly? I'm curious as everyone has their own definition of what is and isn't. My impression about people like you is that Canada is small town living where everyone looks like you. Toronto is what people think Canada is all about; multiculturalism, freedom to be etc. If you...
Yeah it looks bad so let me clarify: What I meant to type was living in Ontario I've been to cities and provinces close to me like Ottawa, Montreal etc. If I am accepted, pass all my courses and (hopefully) end up in Edmonton with (hopefully) The PPCLI it'll allow me to explore other provinces...
I have been thinking about that. I know whatever happens I'll do it anyway but I would like to actually live somewhere that's not Toronto, preferably Alberta, so as to experience life on the West Coast. At the moment I can't imagine wanting to live anywhere other than Toronto which is a problem...
Was NATO capable of winning a military victory over the Warsaw Pact? I look at The Korean War and Vietnam as major military victories for the Communists while Cuba as a political one. When looking at proxy wars where the US and the USSR supported opposing sides like Iran-Iraq War even then a...
I couldn't agree with you more.
Toronto is funny in that way because a lot of people are surprised with how friendly and helpful people are. Some would say its because many of the people here weren't actually born in the city but I like to think we're no different than any other big city...
At that time it was, to me, the best theme song ever. I had no idea at the time who The Rolling Stones were.
I still remember the ending of each episode where you'd see the guys walking off in the sunset in formation... brings back great memories and look very much to experiencing it again
Was that the case with Canada's airing on History Channel? I remember the theme song "Paint It Black" being used in all episodes along with some other tunes from that era with which the show took place.
Fair enough I should have specified what I meant. I always loved the end theme for the show. It's been about 12 or 13 years since I've heard it but I still remember it. And that show was my first introduction to The Rolling Stones as the song "Paint It Black" was used as the opening theme
I just started rewatching the series and was a big fan of it till season 8. I guess with the re-watch I may change my mind but still, given how many seasons this show has run I'm still surprised its as good as it is. "Live Another Day", the shortened series on Fox that just aired, was really...

Anyone remember or know of this show? I used to watch the re-runs as a kid when History Channel aired it back in the early 2000's. I still remember how much I loved it and am in the process of buying it on DVD. If you like Vietnam era media this is a must...
I surmised based on many the recruiter said was in the unit vs what I saw and was told while in the Training company. Do I know specifics? No given what the "on paper" size of the regiment vs the attendance on a parade night it was a big difference. On the issue of what duties this or that...
Irish and French? That's a dangerous combination. :nod: I dated an Irish girl who was feisty as hell and would probably engage in bar fights had it not been for me talking HER down. We traveled together in Mullingar some years back and I loved it.
Hmm... scotch
What's being proposed by Harper isn't radically different than what Reservists are doing now. Ceremonies? GD, Warrior's Day Parades, Remembrance Day. Natural Disasters? Look what happened just recently with firefighting roles.
When I was parading as a Infantry recruit I noticed that we never...
