    JANUARY 2009 BMOQ

    BMQ is held every month (or as needed). BMOQ is less frequent but there are other dates in January. Other than that I think the next is April.

    Tory minority in jeopardy as opposition talks coalition. Will there be another election?

    Interesting development. So if the G-G doesn't allow for a coalition government and dissolves parliament, it could make for an interesting election. So in essence, forming the coalition (which may not even happen anymore with the prorogue and Dion stepping down) could end up weakening the...

    What the....? The Leafs have Won the Stanley Cup!!!

    Unfortunately, those conniving HaBLOCtants only signed onto the coalition because the Sen(DP) and Maple Libs promised that they would be moved to their own division in the Eastern Conference "The French Centre". Upon realisation that Bettman would not allow such a travesty, the Habs quickly...

    POLL: Do you think Canadian soldiers should be in Afghanistan?

    In his defence, \statistics have shown that the majority of Canadians are losing support for the War. I found this article on the Globe and Mail website (I haven't found the actual poll, but the Globe is a legitimate paper). Taken from...

    POLL: Do you think Canadian soldiers should be in Afghanistan?

    While using a single isolated case may be "unethical", the fact is that attacks like these continue to happen throughout Afghanistan. Albeit maybe not as heinous as acid on people, but nonetheless, the Taliban continue to blow up schools and have resorted back to "terror" tactics to scare the...

    lens replacement surgery

    I had my eyes done, and I was accepted (starting BMOQ in January). The procedure I had done was PRK (as opposed to LASIK), I don't know if the review board looks at these any different. --Edit-- I'm an idiot, its lens replacement surgery you are having. I have no idea, sorry.

    Russia in Decline

    I would be a little hesitant to call Russia a power in decline. People can be born, weapons can be bought but oil and natural gas is a finite commodity which will continue to be in demand ESPECIALLY with growing economies like China and India. Furthermore, Russia continues to grow...

    Taliban Envoy: UN "a pro-US organization", OIC could help bring sides together

    While I agree that the UN cannot afford to have the US sidelined (note League of Nations), I don't think it's fair to claim that the UN is a US favoured institution. Its reluctance to condemn Guantanamo doesn't stem from a pro-American attitude, but rather from an impotence that is inherent in...

    Am I too old, fat, or fit in? 2001 to 2016

    You aren't too old. No decision is "bad". There are only right and wrong decisions for you. As long as you meet the criteria, you can start at almost any position. Go to www.forces.ca and search hot jobs, those are the jobs that are in the highest demand.

    October Officer Selection Board

    I was wondering the same thing, so I followed up on the 6th and got my call that same day. So I guess the calls have started, but I've also heard that you might now get the call until a couple weeks before BMOQ starts. Hope that helps. Also, if you do get laser eye surgery, just know that you...

    The beggining of a long journey

    not sure if you'll ever read this, but make sure you get the right corrective surgery. There are 2 kinds PRK and Lasik, I think the preferred type to get is PRK for pilots (as it avoids the creation of a "flap").

    JANUARY 2009 BMOQ

    yup Lets hope none of the above, my artistic skills are minimum... to be honest I don't know why they chose me for that skill ;) Of course, they ALSO chose me to be an Artillery Officer, so lets hope I'm more successful there.
