Derby, me old mate, just took you off "ignore" as you seem to have an interest in my posts right now.
Justify the the disbanding of the Canadian Airborne, a proud regiment with a war record second to none, and the EH 101 cancellation that we paid $500,000,000 for in 1995 for nothing.
No. You know full well that despite having me on ignore you are reading all my posts and dropping comments like the one that got you a warning. If you want to ignore me then do so. Don't follow me around and post "I like the ignore function" every time I debate somebody.
1) I have always said that disbanding the Airborne was wrong and a black mark against the Libs. Of course that was before so called airborne guys posted that they have always hated the Libs and their entire unit despised them. After that I'd have to say that you reap what you sow.
2) Cancelling the EH 101. That cost to implement was 10X the penalty. Unless you are completely out of touch then you should recall just how badly we were in debt. Hell the Libs are vilified for the debt measures they did take but it was necessary. Bankrupt countries cannot support any military whatsoever.
3) Your hatred for the Libs borders on hysterical at times. Paul Martin did exactly what you military loving cons wanted. He was the man who really put the spending back in and he was the man who saw us go into greater combat roles but for his trouble all he got was vilification by people like you.
Hell, your comment "I would punch out any politician I met in a pub" says it all doesn't it. For all your crap about hating people who display that very attitude towards cops and/or soldiers you are every bit as guilty as them. You, a supposed police office in good standing would commit felonious assault on any serving Canadian politician based on your own person belief. Thats no different then everybody you rail against whom you say "hates cops and/or soldiers"
4) I think the greatest threat to military funding are people like you. You vilify all the other parties with the worst insults about how they all hate the military and give no credit when they do the right thing then excuse people like Harper who had all the money and momentum he wanted to "really" fund the military but instead broke promises left and right.
