You want me to comment ... oh look something shiny ....... J/K.

I believe your comment is just opinion. Could you back up your statement with any facts in regard to any EMS union ? cheers

Just because I was bored I like light pullover but not for a work application unless crested up and such. Body armour is improving (a high school kid designed this one as a science project) I have a buddy selling "Line Of Fire" but its really hot to wear. He wears it as do others, working on one of the most "violent" reserves near Calgary in fact in conjunction with soft "kevlar" and in the event of a highway crash it would be worth the effort alone. Richard: These "cop" killer so called teflon rounds are pretty dang rare, most gang bangers just can't afford them, and if someone can afford them ... your a low value target if your not packing a firearm.

Yes and No ... a minor point of contention as working remote or offshore deployments the prime contractors are looking for all the bells and whistles, not just ACLS or Trauma Care and transport "buddy" to an Trauma Centre or an English speaking ER in under 30 minutes. Primary care evaluations extremely important patient management and longer term care are the top of the hit parade, offshore, remote. Questions like: is this a surgical belly or just a stuck fart type "visit" and do you actually require helo ? From antibiotic therapy to suturing with eye evaluations a big one and all the way up to arranging a medivac as in international long distance with an intubated patient. Ones scope and skills are very marketable and this also boils down to topside medical direction because they may ask you to do things you have never touched on in "paramedic school" Meddock, just how a bachelors in communications would improve your chances of obtaining employment in another country is a real stretch of the imagination other than a position that focuses on Public Relations and your fluent in a multitude of languages. I feel your way off base, the vast majority of male RN's in North Sea are ex UK Royal Navy or South African Paramedics or ex USA Forces RNs, they are heads above the typical REMT-P in Cali. ... just saying. cheers

Speaking of the Neufies .. dang if, Danny Williams would suck up his pride for a minute, and work with Harper for sustainable development of Oil and Gas Nationally. Seriously he would be a most excellent advisor for and new and improved (National Energy Policy) .. he blows the doors off Alberta's "give it away for pennys on the barrel" philosophy. So next is Down with AB Provincial Regressive Conservatives we need numbers that are not 57 to 16 (entire collective opposition 4 parties) because that's the real problem with the huge majorities shoving crap down our throats for over 40 + years in Alberta. Zactly: I think Kybeckers got this point ... hence the dumping of the BLOCHeads. NDP ... although on the campaign trail, Layton entertains the "idea" of opening up the Constitutional issue again ... MEH, maybe just a ploy to get the young tadpoles interested ... LOL. Global Warming ... nonsense that's just a conspiracy theory ... cheers ps Harper did not break any laws ... that is nonsense, HE / PC federal were "voted down" on a contempt bs rap, its not the same as a legal court .. just out voted is all.

Only thing .... I and agreed in principle with your statements, I have to add is this: If the MP's would vote for bills and policy "sans party line" but for their constitutes opinions .. we would be in a way better place. cheers

I believe that most can not believe an actual honest polition exists, personally I am a huge fan of Harper, that said a bit too big of a majority .. but Canadians were fed up with "coalitionist" crap. He managed to keep Canada in economic recovery WITH IGGY and JACK and the BLOCHEADS plotting a "legal coupe" ... meh. Harper said he would lower GST and he did, now can move ahead with a long term plan, chip away and carefully make thing better for pensioners +++ .. maybe use some immigration dollars instead ? The big ticket items/ policy .. don't know about the F-35 details .. but I do know we need to protect out airspace and 12 operational Super Hornets (and six overseas right now) I think the super cruise sans after burners as the selling feature. Just me but I believe Canadian's FINALLY realised that IGGY should go back to school, and the BLOCHEADS were affecting our entire economy negatively .. just say separatist and investors run away (as if young Kubekers don't get they can't separate without becoming "Les Misérables" ! NDP humm ... balance is good but unproven as of yet and socialism is not a BAD thing but tax corporations is economics 101 ... we the people would end up paying. My biggest hope is that Harper will put some teeth in real crime legislation, AND hold provinces "accountable under Can Health Act" Finally get rid of the waste of 4 billion registering hunters long guns when a gang banger in down town EDM shoots another Somali kid that was waiting for his own murder trial to start ... cheers Oh yeah yeah for Liz May .. I like that chicky ! I believe your deluded .. Canada is NOT a 2 party system and never will be, that's an american gig .. between a black rock and a swear spot ... te he.

I did not know that ... interesting. -
Yup ... a good day in Canada . Sad part is that only 61% of the population bother to vote.

Do you not believe that without unions in place we would have faired anywhere as well, more of a model to follow, I believe with the takeover EHS the rural guys/gals are NOT complaining today. I can remember the very day that EAA (Edmonton Ambulance Authority) took over and we were finally paid for working 14 hours instead of being paid 10 on nights. A huge failure for Employment Standards which have not changed in 25 years the "day rater" concept is the next big hurdle to overcome. I believe that competition for unionised or non unionised positions but supply vs demand is a bigger factor. Agreed BC CUPE is an epic fail, everything is based on seniority rarely merit or education, a shame really.

http://www.albertahealthservices.ca/3165.asp Look under "pain management" and no longer a guideline a firm protocol .. nice eh ? ps no RRT was involved in this list only the 3 wize men. Inability to follow verbal instructions Intoxication with alcohol or drugs Head injury with altered mental status Thoracic injury suspicious for pneumothorax (because of its capacity to diffuse into air-containing spaces based on concentration and blood flow) Abdominal pain and distension suspicious of bowel obstruction (because of its capacity to diffuse into air-containing spaces based on concentration and blood flow. Notes Invert canister three times prior to administration Administer early while obtaining vascular access to provide pain relief prior to narcotic administration For the ACP Entonox ... its a waste of time and effort .

Good grief a conspiracy theory already ... you would know Osama from a picture ?
-
Very Obvious you have NO friken IDEA about CQB ... as if Osama would not be armed with an AK, hence every other point is mute, it simple we should cut out the cancers in this world. ps We found Saddam hiding a coward in a hole like a gopher, way different. Well history just proved you wrong they used the sharp end of the spear ... NAVY SEALS !
