Not to be rude, but one sentence posts made by several people, essentially saying im somehow being prejudice are not constructive, nor do they add to the 'conversation'. Had these people taken the time to review the full thread, read my opinion CAREFULLY, taken time too think about why I might...

I suppose your both right.  ::) Good to see people interested in discusion rather than jumping down peoples throat when they state their opinion.

Well, I guess thats why were discussing the topic. Differing opinions...

Not being from Toronto, I could care less.  "A dig at people not even in the CF yet". Its not as if Im standing at the door of CFRC Toronto pointing out people I feel are less 'well off' and telling staff to turn them away. I think I was misunderstood. Im NOT saying that people who use the...

Hard to hold prejudice against myself, that is being that I am a night Janitor working for $10.50 an hour at 60 hours a week. But, maybe I should have phrased it better.  By actively recruiting from employment lines (a place I have found myself more than once) you are going to find yourself...

I don't like the idea of working with people who are purely in a career for the money, which is what 80% of the people you find in the unemployment line would be joining for. In my experience (PRes and civvie side) they lack initiative, are generaly the last people to start a job, and the first...

;D I laughed so hard I almost cried.

Thats just crazy talk.

I don't know, I bought a Shemagh in Pet this past July and thought it was a good piece of kit. Its just big enough to keep your neck warm in the morning/night, and thin enough to wear over my face while under the hot sun to save myself from having to constantly apply sunscreen to my nose. After...

While im not questioning whether or not such is true, how is it they (the UN) managaed to get in there in the first place then?

Apparently. It was night when I did the PT test though so I suspect when I show up at Trenton in daylight they'll promptly send me home.  :nod:

Not particularly. It doesn't change my opinion though. It may sound stubborn, but if the UN were to refuse to continue operating in Africa because it been unsuccesful there in the past makes me want to say it should stop peacekeeping everywhere. Why should they bother operating in safer areas...

While I respect your opinion, and understand your points, I just feel like one could say that about any conflict, anywhere in the world. Is it really right to give up on finding a favourable resolution to a problem like the one occuring in the Ivory Coast, just becuase "we've" been through it in...

I just feel like its kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't. Obviously Gbagbo isn't going to step down, so something needs to happen otherwise. atleast according to the opinions of many, Civil war will occur. Sending more UN troops would probably cause Gbagbo and those that support...

Though I can't yet relate, I lol'd.

I think having neighboring countries more or less influence him to 'retire' is the best option at this point, besides protecting Quattara UN intervention to protect Quattara supporters should be dealt with carefully and not be implemented prematurely otherwise it may cause what it seeks to...

I had never heard of this before. So someone is sabotaging Irans nuclear power plants and what not? Wonder who that could be...?

I didn't see Iran on that list either...

Cool, Thanks for the response BearW. I guess its pretty much impossible to prepare for course content but a little insight is always nice.

Hi,   Im just looking for a little insight into the Basic Para course, mainly just broadly what the first/second/third weeks consist of, what the PT is like both in content and difficulty, and anything else advise wise someone who has completed/taught the course can tell me. I ask because by...
