That was a "discrimination" tax. I am from QC (city that is) and my tip level is 20%, never lower than 17% (min is 15% in QC) if service is good than it goes up. No matter in which province/state/country I am in. There is apparently a bad reputation for us in restaurants. But than again we could...

When I saw the video, I thought that artistically it was OK, putting aside wrong vehicles and uniforms for Canadian soldiers. I did understand the "story" behind that song, and he has the right to "sing" it. Thing is, he said in interviews that he wanted to show the Afghan view of the war. Fine...

ModlrMike,                 Sadly it is not unit dependent. It came down directly from RC South. The Brits were more radical..no civvies at all except for PT. CDN are allowed (for now) to go at the boardwalk in PT and " Normal civvies" is allowed only at your living area. But for kitchens it's...

With regards for civilian clothing I would suggest to check with your SSM. Rules have changed since august 1 2010. Basically the only thing you can now wear in KAF is CADPAT or PT, the PT you usually wear for your morning PT. No more "civilian" pants or jeans, or shirt etc... If you want to pack...

Altought I did not participate in this discussion (lack of knowledge on this matter), after everything that was said, it reminded me of a saying in french from a certain someone  :)  "À gang on sait toutes" which translate in "With all of us, we know everything". Bring him down from is ivory...

Not wanting to brag, but on last days of our tour,  a certain group was still doing very perilous task less than a week before decompression. A "weird" decision if you ask me, that brought serious consequences.Guys were only thinking about going home and only wanted a break. Absolutely nothing...

I just finished Steve Berry's :  The Templar Legacy and The Alexandria Link. The last one brings a little twist at the current "Mapping" of the middle east. Interesting, but a little piece of advice, read The Templar Legacy first, which introduce the major players, of both books. It is not a ...
