The Canadian Forces Members and Veterans Re-establishment and Compensation Regulations were amended on October 1st, so this report is sorta out of date. Good news with the amendment though, for those who are doing VAC Vocational Assistance. The maximum amount for "tuition fees, books, computers...

Oh Walmart, why must you make those self-service checkout machines so infernally stupid! I was buying stuff to take with me to BMQ, and this machine kept asking me to put stuff into one of there plastic bags, I had my own (well, my Mom's) canvas bag, helping to save the planet! Anyways, the...

The funniest thing I find about the Onion is if you go back 2-6 years and read the articles, I would bet that at least 50% of them have come true, even the really outrageous ones.

Hello all, I have a quick question, I have my swear-in ceremony on the 19th, but I didn't ask where it was, I am assuming that it is at CFRC Toronto (the place I called) and I think the recruiter assumed I knew that, I will be calling again on Monday to make sure. I was just wondering if anyone...

Here is a funny military comic I found while idly surfing the net. http://pichaus.com/comic-military-@da55e3edab9ebea928dc62d776222550/

Not too sure what it would be, it's probably telecom/tv stuff of some sort, since the power is already laid, they could've been contracted to lay fiber, or at least to lay piping/tubing that telecom/tv cabling can be pulled through. Hopefully it's fiber, and this is just the beginning of...

I was going through some old news paper clippings I had saved from when I worked at the Oshawa PUC. One day they decided to purge their archives of old invoices etc.. stuff dating back to the 20's. Anyways, I found a bunch of newspaper clippings and articles from various Oshawa newspapers, I...

I do not believe this falls under terrorism, but "hate speech" in Canada, or just Free Speech with the 1st Amendment in the US. They can be arrested for disrupting the service, that's why they have to stay x number of feet back from the service, and they usually do. Most of the family is lawyers...

I was looking at the WR-3700e from winradio.com

I am not sure what kind of voting system this would be, but I wish that I could vote for a local rep in my riding independantly of the federal party. i.e. I could vote a Lib in as my MP, but vote for the Cons Federally, or vice versa. Never thought it through in any detail, but there are times...

Well, it's just a receiver, it cannot transmit regardless of what you do with programming, all you can do is modify what it recieves and how it demodulates, how it works with the demodulated signal, essentially you could do all this with a hardware device if you know how to build one. The Govt...

Hello all, Just a quick question, that I searched for and couldnt find. I am thinking about buying an SDR (Software Defined Radio) receiver soon, and the company who offers the product to the public also offers a "Government Only" version, which I has full access to the entire spectrum...
