Hey all,
I'm just joining this site. I'm working on a Ph.D. at Carleton University in Ottawa. I'm a former member of the CGG.
Yesterday evening, the CDS, Gen Hillier came to deliver a lecture here at Carleton. I'm sure he was looking to give the lecture to a group of mature students seeking to learn something new. Instead, a small group of radicals came to disrupt the lecture, suggesting the CF is in league with the US policy of killing everything they see. Would you believe one student actually went up to a microphone during the Q&A period following the lecture, and his 'question' was to ask Gen Hillier to resign?
Why do people not seem to respect young men and women putting their own lives on the line to try and help rebuild countries like Afghanistan?
Are civilians with no military experience growing more disrespectful than they have in the past?
Glad to be here, hope to meet all of you on this site.
Take care,
Chris
