I will be signing up if they offer that. New skills are always good. Best case we never have to use them but worst case we are a bit more prepared.

“Those who join the civil defence corps would face less restrictive age limits and meet lower physical and fitness requirements. Their training would be limited to five days per year to ensure accessibility. 

In that short period, volunteers would learn skills such as shooting, moving, communicating, driving a truck and flying a drone, according to the mobilization plan. Canada’s civilian force would get medical coverage during training, but not pensionable benefits.”

I don't have a house and my apartment is owned by a billion dollar company. If I had a house, it wouldn't be mine and I would be defending the mortgage/property of the bank. Home is where the heart is. The rest is a piece of land owned by the system. I've already left my native region because I've been told to leave if I didn't like it there.

My loved ones are all conservatives and/or capitalists that would vote for the same shit Republicans are doing, while denying it. Last election, the country would have voted for Conservatives if it were not for the orange turd threatening us.

The Québecois were conquered centuries ago by the English and oppressed into submission so they would be forced into this country. And to this day, we still even can't have an agreement on the constitution. We are still into a constitutional impasse and the country risks imploding and threatens the other parts to either agree or be kicked out, every time we're talking about it, to the point that we're just ignoring it.

I don't think any of this is worth helping the military industrial complex into getting exactly what it's been wanting for the last decades.

Move to the states then, or Russia cause that will be what happens. Get a head of it why not?
