    Canada Better off with European Union or North American Union?

      I share the same opinion as some of the other posters, I myself would prefer to be part of the EU.  I also firmly believe that the day canada has even the slightest odds/hope of joining the EU is the day we find mermaids in atlantis possibly somewhere in lake ontario.  As far as I see it the...

    CELE COURSE IN KINGSTON

    Hi DVessey,  I was wondering what kind of materials are you studying on course (presently and/or in the future)?  I am interested in pursuing CELE in the future after I am done school.  I have browsed the CF recruiting site and the descriptions provided there are incredibly vague.  I am a...

    Cadets Asked To Leave Mall

    When a cadet unit fundraises, the money is used by them to pay for training, materials etc, they are using the funds to support themselves.   Poppy distribution has absolutely nothing to do with fundraising, as others have already mentioned.  I was shocked and appalled to read that you equated...

    Affiliated Units and Cadet Training

      I don't know of any Air sqn's that have affiliated units.  I'm sure there are some but they are few and far between as there are not many air reserve units around either.  We do famil flights with civilian aircraft (my sqn hasn't done it in a few years) but they aren't affilliated units or CF...

    Favorite Military Film

      I personally loved starship troopers, I actually watched it tonight.  I really enjoyed the book as well.  I hated the second movie, when it first came out I thought awsome, if this is anywhere as good as the first it will rock, it wasn't close.  I downloaded it, it wasn't worth the time to...

    CADPAT desktop?

      If I understand correctly, you have a small sample of cadpat and you want a larger piece to work with.  Create a new file the size you want in paint, open your piece in paint, and copy, paste it into the large image, and keep doing this still its full, you can copy a smaller selection to fill...

    Military I.D. and the LCBO- A "situation"

        I had a question actually, does the LCBO accept the PAL/FAC??? I rarely have a problem, but once in a while the LCBO gives me a problem similar to that above.  It is goverment issued ID of course, but I'm not sure if it is in the book or not, i've never seen the poster or looked through the...

    second language exam

      Hi all,   I was wondering, if you learn a second language (ie. french, spanish, russian, etc) is there an exam you can write so you can say that yes I am bilingual when you apply for a job.  I'm assuming there is, but couldn't locate what I was looking for on the internet.  If there is one...

    No bikes in winter at 17 Wing because of THIS? Please, tell me its not true!

        cool idea about the flag.  I must say, there are alot of bikers who use the grass to go around people here, I also walk a fair amount and get passed by bikers, most people here don't bike in the winter so I don't get passed often in snowy stretches.,  I actually think our country should be...

    No bikes in winter at 17 Wing because of THIS? Please, tell me its not true!

      I mostly go on the roads, I live up by bathurst and steeles in TO (and area)  I  am on the road for all the backroad sections, but on all of the main roads like steeles, yonge, bathurst, dufferin, etc I stick to the side walk,  I consider my saftey to be key and don't trust drivers at all.  I...

    No bikes in winter at 17 Wing because of THIS? Please, tell me its not true!

        I also bike all year round, but I am currently living in Toronto which really doesn't have a winter (or what i'm used to anyway).  I hate the drivers out there, other then drivers I really don't mind biking here.  I don't have studded tires, there hasn't really been the need for them yet...

    Army Cadet Radio's for FTX's

        I always wanted to take my amature radio license, I actually know some people up in Que that took it.  It is one of those things I still mean to do, but alot of kids out there don't have the interest or patience to study for an exam like that.  I was thinking about bringing it into my...

    Army Cadet Radio's for FTX's

      I love the small black radios, and they clip onto my gear perfectly, I never minded the big old ones but they can get annoying esp when climbing cliffs and hills.  And my squadron always sleeps outside in houches or artic tents for the senior cadets at least, I always made sure of that.  Very...

    K-Bars and Cadets

      In my unit I was aloud knife, and if we had any other SI grads they could as well.  Before I was swo, the swo used to carry a knife too.  Other then that any knifes were confiscated.  A knife does come in handy sometimes especially if you are teaching a class where you need it for stuff, but...

    Don't you miss hockey?

    I don't miss it at all, I saw some jr. games last year thats where the real games are played, not by the overpaid players.  To be quite honest I wouldn't care if the NHL had ever started up again.
