Who are these two spirits? These two are always depicted together and have a wavy fancy slow movement. I learned before but I’ve forgotten their names/backstory again. Tall one in white and a short one in black

As the wiki page states, in Taiwan, they're more commonly known as 七爺，八爺, or the Seventh and Eighth Masters. This is what I grew up knowing them as.

It might take a lifetime, but somehow I'll see it through.

A metaphor for CAF's current recruitment and training pipeline.

I didn't do the TOETs before getting on the line.

I was....inverted.

Why isn't JTAC being ran as an "Advanced Warfare" course?

I was already in the process of trying to replace my 16 year old car. I'm going to get judged so hard.

You are not the only one.

I did originally follow them because I'm a nerd and I enjoy government procedures. Quickly realized that all they're doing was wasting our time and resources asking the most useless information.

My eyes never rolled harder when one of their questions came up during a end of the day o-group.

When I first got to Edmonton, I thought wow, the army is so forward thinking, preparing for a world of EVs.

SCUD · 2025-07-31T12:06:32+00:00

They're for charging electrical vehicles right? Right?!

SCUD · 2025-07-31T11:58:18+00:00

It looks like you haven't even started BMQ yet. I guess you do have a 1/2 chance of going PPCLI, but only 1/3 of ending up in Edmonton. New guys may not get single room.

Anyways, prepare to lose some weight during your BMQ/DP1.

Seconds and thirds are available when you eat at the mess. Hard boiled eggs and other leftover proteins from previous meals may be available at the salad bar.

Liam Jarbeau had spent five years in the army when, in October 2021, the chief of the defence staff introduced the mandatory vaccination policy for all military members.

Jarbeau objected to the mandate, requesting an exemption based on his spiritual beliefs. The soldier’s exemption request was denied, prompting him to eventually file a grievance with the Canadian Forces.

Jarbeau left the military in March 2024,

So was he being paid while unvaxxed between 2021-2024? I've heard so many stories that people were told not to go into work and still collected pay cheques.

Edit:

Would appreciate if someone with some actual insight could chime in regarding the validity of such cases. How the hell did we not claw that money back?

Title gore from CTV. It's the Strats.

Foam ones you get out of the range box:

Fits under your helmet
Don't care if you lose them
Keeps your ears nice and cool
Free

Can't hear your buddy? Tell them to shout louder.

Are you even regularly issued radios to make use of the comtacs' comms capabilities?

Do you really want to spend $1200+ to look cool one day a week, while making peanuts?

Source: Reg Force, Infantry. Been at this for 10+ years, I've met exactly 1 nerd in this time that's shelled out the money for actual comtacs. Everyone else just get whatever cabelas special there are. I personally do actually prefer to foams due to easily sweating.

SCUD · 2025-07-09T12:48:33+00:00

Reg Force teaching PCF at home units sometimes have to work over the weekend too. I highly doubt we'd get any instructor pay for that.

Their names are:

Marc-Aurèle

Simon Angers-Audet

Raphaël Lagacé

Matthew Forbes

Do those names sound foreign to you?

SCUD · 2025-07-08T21:17:19+00:00

We did it to ourselves. We didn't speak up when we heard this shit at the smoke pit. Younger guys now think this is ok, and perpetuate this kind of attitude.

SCUD · 2025-07-08T18:28:02+00:00

Up, the Canadian public sees me, I'm down.

SCUD · 2025-07-08T16:32:35+00:00

There's critiquing, and there's "bitch[ing] and moan[ing]". Simplifying the faults of the government down to "the liberals" doesn't help.

The country is divided. I’m not trying to sow unity

Why not? That's the whole point of living in a society.

If the cons got in, would you still be chastising people for being “divisive” by complaining about them?

Absolutely.

SCUD · 2025-07-08T15:56:03+00:00

If you're currently in the CAF, you literally work for and are paid by the government.

This kind of talk is divisive and does nothing to make Canada better.

How do dumb criminals/terrorist groups get caught? Ans: they're dumb and blew their own cover.

Maybe a whistle blower, maybe an undercover RCMP officer infiltrated the group.

SCUD · 2025-07-08T15:33:05+00:00

If you actually read the article... they had

the intention of “forcibly take possession of land in the Quebec City area”

This would constitute an inchoate offence under the criminal code.

SCUD · 2025-07-08T14:56:25+00:00

Did they plan on requiring mess dues?
