   I fail to see where I was insulting or rude. In fact it was quite explanatory and concise. Perhaps you could point it out exactly Brian.

   CanadianWolverine replied to CanadianWolverine's topic in International

   Sorry but no. Why is it on this forum people want any excuse to voice their opinion on any subject which does not relate in any way to the original topic? I am a member of many boards and people normally would be kicked out of the convo long before n...

8. Psych Nursing in Canada

   CanadianWolverine replied to CanadianWolverine's topic in International

   practical nurses in bc are usually referred to as LPN's here and RPN's are known as something else in the east so I figured the title was enough for you or anyone else to put 2 and 2 together with my own abbreviation lol. I have done enough research ...

    CanadianWolverine replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Men

    Since I powerlift I would imagine when I get to work I will be asked to do a lot of it just from my build. Doesn't bother me one bit. Sometimes I get asked to lift something for a lady in a grocery store. I am hassled by family to help them move. Jus...
