Susan, my son Doug is leaving on Saturday February 10th for his first tour.  I'm scared too.  I have found that talking to other moms and dads who have been there has been very helpful so far. Although I've never been involved in military life, my son has wanted to join the CF since he was three...

Just to add my observations of the ongoing discussion (as the guy who posted the column and wrote the letter in response), it's amazing how fast the conversation declines into nonsense, once the Bush-bashing starts.  The problems with the UN predate George Dubya by at least a generation. Kofi...

I'll let Joe know.  Hunter, I don't live in the Ottawa area, nor am I in shape right now to take up your challenge.  But what a wonderful idea!

James101, I have met your dad, Sean and Captain Wayne Johnston (shy guy) and will be doing all that I can to support this cause.  Because of my job, I have a lot of contacts in the hi tech business and will be approaching them for donations, cash and/or high tech items. My husband is donating...

Copy of Letter to the Editor - Toronto Sun in response to article Thanks to Salim Mansur, for publicly exposing the UN for what it truly is; a club where the Third World can get together to blackmail developed countries, (mostly democracies) into providing aid to dictatorships and tyrannical...

Although I live in the GTA, I took a vacation day to attend the rally in Ottawa.  It was heartwarming and uplifting and provided me with an opportunity to meet other military moms and wives face to face. Many that I've only know through another support website.  I wear red every Friday and I...

Following is a letter that my husband wrote to the National Post.  They only posted the first two lines in the "Letters" Section of the September 11th edition. I apologize if I've posted it in the wrong area but I thought that you might like to read the entire letter. Winston Churchill once...

Deepest condolences to the family & friends of these brave and honourable soldiers.  Godspeed to the injured.  You are all in my thoughts and prayers. :'(

Congratulations!  Okay let's hear how you did it. :salute:

MG, thank you!  That's lovely.

Casey was a hero. He paid the ultimate price for his country.  It's unfortunate that he's not being remembered with the dignity that he deserves. It's understandable that his mother is grieving but losing a son in war does not give her anymore rights than the next person to change politics.  I...

It's so frustrating to watch!!!  I had to leave the room!  QUIT PASSING AND JUST SHOOT THE D*MN PUCK PUHLEASE!

I'm so proud of all of you!  Good luck!

My son is finishing up his training as a comabat engineer.  He was turned down because of a medical complication and was really so very disappointed, because this is what he's wanted since he was three years old... and I can attest to that.  I told him that if he really wanted this he should...
