    The Line Trade is one of the best ones out there.  We are an extremely close knit "family". As we say, "Once a Lineman, Always a Lineman.  Linemen forever". Yes, during our down time, some of the work we do is menotonus (sorry about the spelling), but at most of the time it is go-go-go.  We do...

    Sig Op to Lineman????

    K9 unit

    Having K9 units is a great concept for the CF.  However their use is not just norrowed to the MPs.  Yes the MPs could use K9s for their duties rather then relying on the RCMP for manhunts, bombsniffing, drugs, etc. But other units could use K9 sections: Inf/ Eng- for check points, bomb/...
