Sounds like the difference between a Jew and a Israeli.

Ask Brian and David Reimer. This is children we are talking about not adults. Stories are starting to come out of now adults who realized none of this applied to them but unfortunately for some of them it is after surgeries or other negative things have happened to them. I think over the next...

Keep in mind the Ukraine was genocided before the Nazis showed up and offered to help them fight the people who did it to them. Not a easy point in history to apply right or wrong to, both the Nazis and Soviets were very similar in their brutality and oppression, at least you could say a...

For me I didn’t spend my childhood attracted to males or females, it wasn’t even something that crossed my mind. It also wasn’t something that was pushed on me one way or another. My family wasn’t big on public displays of affection, and they kept things very child friendly. I believe people...

I have a few gay friends, and until they hit puberty they had no idea as how can you possibly think kids develop their sense of sexuality when they don’t even have a sex drive. Even then it took several years for them to realize they were actually gay. Growing up is a confusing time for...

Opinions like yours harm children. Especially when we get garbage like hormone blockers involved. We do likely disagree on a lot of what should be taught, to me gender theory is a waste of tax dollars and there is much better things we could actually educate them on which will benefit them much...

1) To many being trans is a mental illness. I would argue that is a pretty clear statement, as how is not believing your male/female a clearly defined characteristic of sex, not a mental illness? Its not that people don’t believe there is no trans people, its just they refuse to pretend they are...

The only thing Canada provides internationally of relevance is resources, which we have done our best over the last decade to reduce. Like when Japan and Europe was asking for natural gas to reduce reliance on Russia and we said go cold. Our military is weak. We don’t side with our allies when...

Service before self. The tribalism and will we possess to self sabotage the project didn’t help either. It could still work, we only need to have the desire to put our national interests above our personal ones. Instead we focus on buttons and bows and argue about whose more important rather...

I’ve worn both Army and Navy uniforms at this point. The special rule system we have is stupid and pointless. I don’t see the value in the tribalism we practice. Unification could have worked if the CAF tried to make it work instead of sabotaging it every chance we got. The Marines and the...

How about for a revolutionary idea we get rid of the concept of a permanent defined elemental uniform and instead dress troops based off the unit they are posted to. Posted to the Pet? Army DEU. Posted to HMCS Halifax? Navy Deu. Posted to Cold lake? Airforce deu. Just have your cap badge...

There was a good number of us not even 10 years ago, but who knows how many remain in with the attrition we have. I was always a fan of it, it is what the public envisions when they think Navy. Basically no one uses the ‘standard’ army beret. I think at this point there is basically more in...

Considering how the indian government is becoming more extremist themselves it isn’t a stretch for them to have done a mossad style kill team. I like how we continue to stretigically weaken ourselves and force ourselves to become more reliant on them though. 15 years ago we allowed them to buy...

Don’t forget the severe overestimation of Russian casualties early in the war because we were assuming the APCs were fully manned when in reality there was usually a driver, gunner, and commander with no extra troops.

1) it’s decent PR which gets in the paper 2) it’s necessary because many citizens are idiots who will waste police time over the military either maliciously or ignorantly. I remember doing a BFT where we had the cops called on us because we were ‘pointing our guns in this old ladies windows’...

The most important question here is why? Considering we are lacking so much more important things (arty, tanks, AD, portable AT, supply vehicles, ships, planes, etc.) than wasting millions on a new uniform, why bother? We constantly complain about not having enough funds to acquire the...

The philosophy of most the balkans is it isn’t peace, simply time to prepare for the next war.

I am fortunate enough to have bought a house before the nonsense price increases. I am basically living a 1950s Canadian dream lifestyle at the moment, single income household, fairly cheap mortgage, and decent standard of living. I want this to be obtainable for all Canadians. It sucks for...

The problem as I see it is more that the checks and balances our system is supposed to have/use, aren’t being used which has resulted in the need to completely consolidate all power at the house of commons level in the hands of the party leader. The senate and governor general are supposed to...

The economic collapse which is coming soon will correct it. Prices are simply too high to sustain the status quo. We have gone too long without small corrections, basically done everything we could to prevent them. Soon we shall have no choice but to pay the piper and all the negatives that come...
