  2. Fallen Comrades (retired members)

    I'm not sure if it is a "covid year effect" or something else but it seems that we have lost a disproportionate number of sappers this year. Pete Mushrow left us on Christmas Eve. https://cmea-agmc.ca/cwo-peter-k-mushrow-cd-retd
  3. VAdm Norman - Supply Ship contract: Legal fight

  4. You know you are military when...

    When you pass by a bridge and have to resist the urge to stop and get the measurements to do the demolition calcs. (Mostly a sapper affliction.)
  5. Assault Pioneers & Assault Troopers (engineer light of the Inf & Armd)

    I served in the 3 PPCLI BG in Bosnia in 2000. I don't recall you reminding us of that.  ;)

    It's not my area of expertise, but this article states 90% of Vancouver's oil comes from AB. http://nationalpost.com/news/canada/how-alberta-could-sow-gas-price-armageddon-in-vancouver

  9. Fates of former armouries

    I'm not sure when you were with 3 Fd Sqn but your post brought back some memories from my youth. I would have to look for an image of the actual armoury which I may or may not have (it has been a while  :nod:). I do have this shot of building Bailey in the yard on Lees Ave. It was taken around...

    I am missing nothing. You seem to be the one focusing on costumes as you keep coming back to it. Please re-read the end of my post. I have stated my opinion on the whole fiasco there. The costumes is just a part of it. I simply don't agree that it should be outright dismissed as a distraction.

    Sigh. I guess I should have provided more detail on my thoughts. I will attempt to rectify that now. In his rebuttal, BG45 claims to be making no comparisons. In order for me to validate his statement “let’s not pretend he was the first PM to dress up”, I have to compare PM Trudeau’s...

  14. The Khadr Thread

    It's an opinion piece. It's about Charles Adler's opinion. I'm not sure how quoting numerous others would add to the piece. Of course, that's just my opinion.
  15. The Khadr Thread

    Shared with the requisite caveats. https://www.theglobeandmail.com///opinion/would-you-apologize-to-omar-khadr/article35579228/?cmpid=rss1&click=sf_globe
  16. Def Min's "Architect" Statements (split fm Walts et. al.)

    I found this video on David Akin's Twitter feed. The video was posted in July of 2015. The "architect" statement is made around the 14 minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1fWSq0mnXM
