Wainwright (Alb.), le 19 octobre 2012 - Le Général Walter Natynczyk, chef d’état-major de la Défense, s'adresse aux membres du quartier général de l'Exercice MAPLE RESOLVE.
L’Exercice MAPLE RESOLVE est un entraînement militaire qui a lieu au Centre canadien d’entraînement aux manœuvres (CCEM), à Wainwright (Alb.), du 4 octobre au 11 novembre 2012.

My last exam at UWS will take place on Monday morning at 8:30AM. As I make the journey to campus alone, I'm going to remember all the people who have helped me along my 6 years of tertiary education, from TAFE to UWS. Then, when I'm in the exam room, I'm going to recall everything that I know and answer every question in a coherent way. Then, on the way home, alone, I'm going to reflect on my total UWS experience. At home, I'm going to take a nap and when I wake up, I'm going to start the rest of my life...
This photo, examines my resolve and conceptualises my success in punching through the forthcoming exam. Stand back - this is going to academically violent.
