[Colin Parkinson]

From now to March 31st, maybe they want to look good for the camera's during the 2010 games?

Ummmm...? Leather, chaps and a long reach with whips vice pepper spray?  ;D

I am not Vern in RL and I do not play one on TV.

Here's the Ottawa Citizen's version:

Future Canadian soldiers could be wearing new uniforms designed to provide camouflage on the streets of our largest cities.

The Defence Department will know by March what designs might work for what is being called a Canadian Urban Environment Pattern ....

Here is my offer:

Techno ... man ... you're looking a little rough since you made the music video.  ;D

Those designs are to be based on the "unique requirements" of the urban settings of Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto, according to an outline of the project co-ordinated by scientists at Defence Research and Development Canada in Suffield, Alta.

Ottawa, the nerve centre of government and the military, was left off the list because it doesn't rate as a major metropolitan centre.

:rofl:

Duncan said the $25,000 study to come up with camouflage patterns does not necessarily mean a new uniform will be produced for the Canadian Forces anytime soon.

Once the patterns are determined, the results will be presented to the Canadian military and it will be up to the leadership on how to proceed, he added.

Not shocked about that.  I'll be long retired by the time they actually come out with something.
