Good rant, FastEddy. That $24 million salary should be at $250k ...TOPS. Public travel like the rest of us The people who are paid to protect us, fix us and even our heads of government make far less than this. There are no apples and oranges...only common sense.

Very true...there are a few programs around. I should have made a point to say " MORE public money should be spent". There should be more of these programs and aimed at a wider scope of the public as well. There is government assistance available, but not enough, IMO.

89.9 on the North End of Vancouver Island....I'm just happy not to be paying $1.49 anymore.

If they have enough plutonium for 10 weapons, why keep the facility? Sure blow up the tower to ease sanctions...they didn't need it anyhow. I'd demo the reactor too if it meant economic aid and the lifting of embargoes on my country. IMHO, I think the Bush administration should wait until North...

Why don't they replace the good captain him with somebody who WANTS to be there? He does not want, nor deserve the commission he has been given. I see that there are tons of people on this site that are waiting for a chance to serve the Queen (myself included).

The CF does pay for your education: in the form of reimbursement. As for the length of the contract, it is my understanding that they are all different. This is what the CFRC has told me.

I'm tired of feeling like a nobody and just drifting around simply "existing". I want to be part of an institution that means something and have a purpose in life. My family and my country are the most important things in my life and I want to do my part to make sure that they both remain safe...

It angers me to know that you are absolutely correct.  I only hope he has an "accident" during his 15 year stay. That's one of the reasons I didn't become a cop. I was gung-ho for it when I first went to college and studied for it. It's too disheartening to see criminals going through the...
