I heard this story on the Edge Files (102.1 the edge Toronto) while driving into work this morning. Apparently the biker was wailing in pain due to being pinned between the bike and the vehicle. The Jeep driver kept hammering him in the head with the mallet. At least he was wearing a helmet and...

Agree. The CF Expres Test is designed so that if you are in at least minimal shape you should pass. IMHO there is no excuses for failing it unless you have a medical problem as stated...

What's the problem here? You can eat your buttons. The thing is they are very hard to chew and swallowing can lead to choking. The biggest problem is the fact that you can't do up your shirt afterwards, and then you get cold. I had a friend of a friend who ate his buttons once because he was...

There should be no exception to the law, regardless if you are a soldier, politician, cop etc. Isn't that the whole idea of a law.  If it means that much to give a soldier a beer or 10, then change the law to lower the drinking age to 18 or what have you.

I think we can all agree that it is a relief that this Khan character was caught. Lets hope justice will be served in an appropriate manner.

Does anyone know if the CF recognizes Humanism et al. as a "religion"?  Also, does one have the right to not stand (or observe) during a prayer at a military function, ie. Mess Dinner. If the CF is tolerant towards all religions (within reason ie. KKK...) then should they not be just as tolerant...

Full Metal Jacket in person.

Thanks for the update Para Med Tech.  Noted.

Who cares? What does this have to do with the military?

Sorry, to further disappoint you, but I serious doubt the validity of "direct entry" to SAR Tech. You will be able to apply only after you have completed your QL5 course, which will be at a minimum of 2 years after joining. Furthermore, you will have to go through the application process...
