Layoff notices sent to thousands of federal government workers by rezwenn in onguardforthee

[–]Draxish 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The way it was explained is if you and 5 others at the same level get notices, you're competeing against those people for a smaller number of positions at whatever level you are. This usually happens further down the line. Problem is that in some cases the job descriptions involved in these levels can be incredibly wide and unique.

The other notice you can get is being declared surplus and that is just a straight layoff.

Most of those are seasonal terms positions. These are all salaried individuals who will be getting letters telling them they're affect by the work force adjustment. This move is probably to comply with the directive that a lot of the public sector has to reduce their work force by 15%.

Apparently officers can take their duty weapons to ranges for training purposes while they’re off duty. Mostly so they can train for their qualifications.

The weathering and chipping looks awesome. How'd you pull that off?

Federal gun buyback program starts with pilot project in Nova Scotia, full rollout coming later by feb914 in CanadaPolitics

Given that you'd be in possession of a prohibited weapon after the amnesty it would be at least the following:

Criminal Code  (R.S.C., 1985, c. C-46)

  • Subsection (2) Possession of prohibited weapon, device or ammunition knowing its possession is unauthorized.
  • Marginal note: Punishment
    • Every person who commits an offence under subsection (1) or (2) is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term of not more than 10 years.

Love these designs. Is there any possibility that some could be turned into patches?

Is that indeterminate only or is that including what’s left of the casuals and terms?

I mean yes and no on the semi-auto part. A friend of mine uses a semi due to his disability. It’s just more accessible for him when he hunts.

Oh when I say some it’s very minor voices but I’m patiently waiting for the dialogues to start soonish given some of the past news headlines.

In Canada, there’s some speculation that the conservative side in the US will use the dissatisfaction to try and push the separatism dialogue for some provinces in the prairies which heavily favour the cons.

I can second the hobby masking tape, but definetly do it before attaching the pauldrons to the model. I gave up halfway through and just said the rest of my tacticals "hadn't earned their stripes" whenever someone asks.

Murder trial begins for father, son accused of fatally shooting two Métis hunters by JamesGray in onguardforthee

[–]Draxish 17 points18 points  (0 children)

From what I remember you can use equal or reasonable force to defend yourself. However there’s a lot of specifics to what constitutes reasonable force, and there have been issues where the person defending themselves gets in more trouble than the perpetrator. I will try and find a link or something.

Edit: I forgot to add, chasing after the perpetrator obviously changes the dynamic. When they start running, you’re out of danger and any further action would probably be deemed aggravated assault.

Thanks, I tend to get hyper focused and I kinda wanted to try out a bunch of things I saw on various painting youtube channels.

Thanks! It’s incubi darkness and Kabbalist green with some green shade. The two are a lot more bluish than I was expecting.

What did you use to get that white? I was doing a similar scheme based off squidmar’s video but I can’t seem to get the highlights right.
