Don't mean to play right wing, but somebody has to. You guys protest at city hall. Fine. Dandy. Think Brad Woodside has an effect on foreign policy? Doubt it. Its asinine. I'm sorry.
Mental-health issues dog soldiers The Canadian Press Published Monday October 29th, 2007 HALIFAX - Hundreds of Canadian soldiers returning from Afghanistan are suffering from a range of mental-health problems linked to their deployment, according to new data.
But even with this latest information, the military admits it still has little understanding of how many troops might be affected by the rigours of war and operational stress over the long haul.
About 28 per cent of the 2,700 Canadian Forces soldiers who were screened after serving in the war-torn country were found to have symptoms of one or more mental-health problems, including depression, panic disorders and suicidal tendencies.
Of those, 17 per cent exhibited signs of high-risk drinking, about five per cent showed symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, and another five per cent had symptoms of major depression.
Better screen them before they go over,haha.What a bunch.
Drew - I don't think they were protesting there because they wanted to reach Brad Woodside. It's because when planning a protest, City Hall is a good spot because it's central and visible.

Ever notice that it always seems to rain on protests?

Brighter than some...
If I had known so many cute girls go to protests I would have attended more of them when I was single.
Woodwork squeaks and out come the freaks.

Oh I recognize that tomboy girl in the black hat. She's the trespasser with that stupid banner from Canada Day. Too bad she didn't get arrested then.
