Awareness Campaign I sense that it's real important we maintain our professionalism and politely call and ask him if we are welcome in our MV's. https://coalitionavenirquebec.org/fr/activites/venez-deguster-de-bons-hot-dogs-au-bbq-annuel-de-francois-bonnardel-1251/ TRANSLATION...

I'll paste the info on the SAAQ website today from August 21, 2019 for the public record. https://saaq.gouv.qc.ca/en/newsroom/article/immatriculation-des-vehicules-militaires/ Registration of Military-Type Vehicles 21 August 2019 Owners of military-type vehicles...

Twi-Light Zone I'll bet you had the best weather for camping this weekend ever! We'll give up another 3 working days to see if corrective action has been taken because you shouldn't miss another weekend. I hadn't considered the number of folks that are already thinking about this or how wide...

Sylvan Lake Prairie Motor Brigade 2019 For the third year, convoys of history rolled out of the barns and safely down highways, this year to the little town of Sylvan Lake. It's a central location in Alberta that allows the north and south one weekend to gather each year. The last two years the...

I'll know more tomorrow on collaboration discussions with other organizations but the future looks friendly. I was wrong when I said someone was drunk when they typed that letter and I must apologize. They do not drink Cab Sav on the job. It's more likely they were misinformed and thought they...

Good step forward, or slightly sideways but not back,.... nice. Appreciate the quick updates and keep them coming. The Iltis info for highway use is in the MLU forum I believe. We should be able to chase the 'legal' documents from there. What do they want? It's interesting that they asked you to...

Political timing I gotta share this, it's too funny. This poor lad on the right just showed up at my house asking for support in the upcoming election. ..... and me sitting here with my balding head all up in a roar over MV restrictions. Kerry Diotte is a name rich in French history so I'd like...

This issue was recognized a little earlier so I'll pile the links here of ongoing discussions up north. If someone is already steering the canoe I'll just jump in and paddle until the big heads on the table give up some good ideas. Meanwhile, anyone that wants to make an inquiry and jingle some...

There should be two other portfolios affected by a decision like this too. Tourism as well as Heritage and Culture. Sometimes they're glummed together under one minister so I'll jab the list tonight and get more contact info up. Mikey Mcbryan and Buffalo Air just saved a rotting DC-3 out of...

I didn't get a letter. I don't think the rest of Canada got a letter, anyone south of the border get a letter? I hope they gave up an exemption for the Canadian Military. Those LSVW's they use look a lot like the LSVW's we use. Sounds like a lot of folks need to get on the phone. How will we...

That's a fair price. Is that the route you're going? I wonder what they're planning on doing for the seals and wee piston. The collector hobby guys would really like "Repair Kits" put together so we can do them ourselves. Putting thousands of man hours and dollars into the MV's for events...

Spring 2019, late start to Canada Day Finally got the chance to get some hay cut for the pasture herd and grabbed a few pics of some remarkable damage to Goose. The grass is so tall even the 5 ton can't keep up with grazing. We're real wet so the crops are up, gardens are pushing hard and...

CD EMO Deuce Those are the stories that we can only find on Steel Soldiers! We've heard about ridiculous weights being hauled with the M135 and other stories about logistics knowing the weight of every load. What was your experience with max. weight loads? I'd say you and your Dad are part of...

It's a small world, we just acquired a Radar Base in Saskatchewan.........and have no idea how to operate it. https://westcentralcrossroads.ca/2018/06/29/alsask-radar-dome-eager-owner/ There are a few M135's for sale on line. Do you want one complete or a fix'er up'er? Do you have any winter...

Build em or buy em, What part of the world were you in when you drove them? I'm always looking for guys that have stories about the Early Deuce off road abilities and experiences. All adventures are welcome! Did you service them too? Operators had a lot of responsibilities up north here but I...

Happy Fathers Day, A new bubbling baby bombardier. Is it a boy or girl? Having that at the G749 farm could have killed us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Iw5oj37TfA

June 8, 2019 Onoway Parade, The first time we drove the M1010 Adventures into this town almost a decade ago, only two other MV's showed up. The local MVPA has been showing up in volumes since that first parade and 2019 was even better. The M923 was there and even won a trophy, more on that...

hmmm, tips? Once north of the border, to confirm the person you're speaking with understands what you said, add ....eh... to the end of the sentence. "Nice day eh!" The response could be, "Sure is by, stay where your at I'll come where you're to!"....or...a different reference, ""Boston's going...

Stuck in the Muck Hey folks, good news, this just in, the Dozer is out! Not long ago I got stuck in muck that never was muck before. A new wet area appeared, I found it and needed a soldier B to help get me out. I walked the half mile, uphill, to get Goose before heading to the nearest...

Goes earns more stripes. There's been so much going on we'll never catch up so let's start with today. Goose earned some stripes and a medal today. Who's the guy that made up that saying...."No good deed goes unpunished?". A neighbour from the farm calls last night, a little sad, a little...
