| It was Royal when I was a cadet. It wasn't a few years later. And NOTHING changed about honouring anyone who served then, before then or now. It's CANADA'S Air Force and Navy, not the Queens. This is a foolish move that pisses off Quebecers, non-Anglo new Canadians and nationalists like me. I resen... |

| Most Canadians don't give a rats ass about the gun registry and a significant number support it. Don't you mean an insignificant number? No, I mean significant. I suspect the registry has seen it's day, but a significant number of Canadians support it. Unless of course you discount anyone who does ... |

Akhenaten Akhenaten: poquas poquas: This was certainly predictable.
Not nearly as predictable as the turn out apparently.
Only 250 showed up in Edmonton. Less than who showed up to protest Bush's speech last fall. |

| I did read the article and its doesn't help your case one bit. You complain in other threads about the fact that getting off one's ass even 6 years ago would've made no damn difference. It still takes time to design and lay down the ship and the 2012 date was a realistic one. Your complain failed to... |

| That's a difficult question to answer. The reason is that its 2009 so I have the advantage of retrospect. In retrospect, one Canadian life was too many, given the value of this mission in terms of its results. Here's a better question. Would you say he same things if all those had died on a UN Peac... |
