The journal of a young Canadian and his career in the Armed Forces. Check out the archives!
One week. It takes about one week from walking in a recruiting office to
starting Basic training. IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY.
Not just that: If I were to walk over to the US Consulate, I could fill out
the forms for a Greencard, then take a bus to Buffalo, and start a military
career in less than a month.
I can't say it isn't tempting, especially considering the horrible job I'm
going to have to take to pay the bills until the Canadian Forces get back to
me...
But I can't. Damn it, I'm a Canadian.
Of course, so are the
Barenaked Ladies...
