Must have been a cadet. Reserves get CADPAT right from BMQ for quite some time now.

President's Choice is also CIBC and you can do everything they offer with no fee. Relocations are too easy with PC because you're not tied to any branch.

Yes, 15 Svc were issued Tac Vests last winter/spring.

That unnamed university has in the recent past had the distinction of being rated Canada's worst university in MacLean's magazine's survey.

Father: Captain, 3rd Anti-Tank Regiment, RCA Grandfather: Pte, The Royal Green Jackets Great Uncle: RSM, The Royal Scots (not sure which battalion) Cousins:  Both LS, Royal Navy BTW, I had a Dutch great uncle who was in the SS. What does that get me for points? :o

Oh for God's sake. "Find" a new patron saint? What a plonker.

That's right! Or MOISM by a MOIST. ;D

Ok, I started this ridiculous discussion and I wish I hadn't.  :'( I really meant gaiters, not puttees, and obviously that's gone over like a lead balloon (not that CADPAT boots isn't a funny idea). Anyway I'm sorry. So what do you guys think of tricorn hats with feathers?

As long as you don't cut where the cardboard is attached at the bottom, it won't flop over. It's when the cardboard is detached from the seatband that you get that happening.

You're right, it's gaiters I was thinking of.  :-\ I don't think Sergeant Majors have nearly enough to do though.  ;)

Or MILCOTS!  ;D

What, like Edmonton isn't full of giant pants and sideways ball hats too? What about all the LA-style drive-by shootings in Millwoods? The only difference is that the boom cars are pickup trucks.

"I know that we have aprox 80 in the CF right now" I thought we had 120 or so but they are upgrading 80.

I live in Alberta and I don't think, like some, that because I started life on third base that I hit a triple. In the last provincial election more people voted against Ralph Klein than voted for him. The electoral map in this province has been so jerryrigged over the years that it's almost...

Well I thought it was Ralph Klein who is handing out free money.

I'm in Edmonton and people generally like it here. The only thing that really bugs me about it is how short the days are in winter. In the dead of winter I'm going to work when it's dark and coming home when it's dark again. That's because we're quite far north. Also, more than Winnipeg, you...

Maybe we could get her to throw rotten vegetables and dead cows off the roof of Rideau Hall while speaking in an outrageous French accent.

Aesop, you may be on to something there!   :o I knew she was a French citizen already so her stopping being that is, er, a step in the right direction I suppose... Well, as I like to say: God Save The Queen
