I was just at the Canadian Forces Recruiting site and I was very disappointed. The U.S.A has "Army of one." and our says basically the same thing. Very disappointed.

rpatno said:Well it essentially the same thing, but what else could you really put in an army recruiting site. There isnt a wide variety of slogans and "An army of one" is not hard to think up - the americans just used it first. Its not copying so much as it is using what is available. Isnt out slogan "Strong. Proud. Today's Canadian Forces." ?
Every time i see, say, or hear that by the way, i die a little inside. Just like where i live there is a sign "Welcome to victoria, Home of canada's Pacific naval fleet." Thats sad... on the east end of things.. there is like 3 or 4 ships... the east DOSNT count.

You are rightJaxson said:you know i honestly think, no matter how much flashy things we have, if we cant process the recruits quick enough, and provide them with proper equipment *insert what is lacking* then no matter what we do as far as catching people eyes, it will have no effect, without funding the CF will fade right into the backgrounds and not even be considered by many as anything but a last resort.
The true problems lay in politics, they fund the CF, if we cannot gain the support of the people, we cannot gain the politics, or the funding.
Cabose said:I think all the sites look the same in one way or another and our recruiting video was pretty good. And don't underestimate the nave we have the most advanced ships around and will we may have 55,000 or so troops they are better trained then our friendly neighbours to the south. I do how ever agree that driving by "welcome to Victoria home of Canada's Pacific navel fleet" is pretty sad because or whole navy is about 64 ships (or maybe it was 32 cant remember ;D ) but hey we can be proud of the fact that we have a small force that is in it way strong. Remember bigger is not always better. and who says we copied them maybe they copied us who nows.
You are right
