CFB Winnipeg was down for six days! That is just scary, I'm glad most of the world likes us.

Oh Canada.

They're our armed forces, bought and paid for with our tax dollars and charged with protecting *us*.

Wouldn't it be within our rights to know when they weren't protecting us at full capacity -- and why?

Canada is an awesome country and all, but I'm sick of the thousands of complete idiots that live here. Some people might want to check this out too: Canada at grave risk if national disaster strikes: Senate report

yikes...that is messy...i mean, switchovers can always be complicated, but for something this scale, they should have been better prepared.

A lot of things have gone wrong at the Ontario Government moving from Bell to Telus. Lots of down lines, cut data lines and voicemail redirects that go to nowhere.

Things are finally starting to stabilize with the Ontario Telus contract. They even cut a whole bunch of providers connected into GONet without telling them...

We all didn't think things could be worse than EDS... often when we had a problem, we'd go over EDS and go right to Bell to fix problems...

... and you know what, in 5 years, it'll probably all happen again, when they decide to go back to Bell...
