Join the new world

Where do we come from?

Before the renewal of Canada there was the Dark Times. The time when the country was erased from the world map and completely occupied. Some citizens asked to do more, many citizens needed to do more. On the 8th of August, Bruck became the first official registered member of Bruck's Canucks and in this way the adventure of one resistance fighter group was born.

The following day eight citizens in exile joined the group and since then the numbers have continued growing at a steady pace. As of the time of writing this article Bruck's Canucks is 65 resistance fighters strong. The membership comes from all walks of Canadian life be they young citizens, veterans, members of Congress, businessmen or mercenaries. We even have a few foreign nationals who believe in the cause and have agreed to help.

It became clear very fast that for this to work the group would need two main things: a) steady source of supply and b) effective communication. For many, the lack of communication and feeling of belonging was what drove them to try this non-government organization. To keep these people, the organization would have to both appear open and be that way in fact. Questions have always been encouraged and knowledge is transfered to everyone in a straightforward manner. Very early the idea of the volunteer workforce became a central tenet. Resistance fighters would contribute their time to produce iron and guns and in return they would have leadership that armed them and led them in battle.

What have we done?

The first test for Bruck's Canucks came in the liberation of British Columbia. At the time there was around 50 members calling the group home. It was possible, through personal savings and generous donations, to move every member available to the conflict, arm them with 5 Q1 weapons and move them back to our temporary foreign bases. It was around this time that we officially instituted a supply coordinator and a network of organizations to facilitate getting the gear out to the troops.

Two days later we got warning of the coming battle for Quebec. Even though we had just made some considerable expenditures, we again supplied every available soldiers with moving tickets and weapons increasing our damage output in the bargain as everyone got better at what they were doing.

Those that have signed up so far have been shown to be very active and enthusiatic about the plan, eagerly buying into our code of conduct and business/supply model. This has allowed Bruck's Canucks to expand from it's initial two foreign companies to six as we move everyone back to Canada and help economically as well as militarily. We have expanded from our initial five platoons to seven today not counting our reserves and executive platoons. The lines of communication are clear and we re-examine our priorities and methods of operation on a regularly basis. Weaknesses are identified and dealt with through decisive action and the feedback of the membership.

Every battle offers us new challenges we must learn from. Bruck's Canucks is dedicated to providing all their members with maximum support. As we grow in number, we also grow in opportunities. Slowly there is a network of business deals and cooperation that is building that complements what the group is producing as a whole. This side network has been very generous in stepping in when shortages occur and providing markets for surpluses.

Not everything has been sunshine and roses however. Communication with the CAF and Canadian government has been difficult at best. The main cause of this is misunderstanding of the goals and motivations on both sides. Bruck's Canucks has been accused of being a political ploy, of arbouring anti-establishment feelings. In return the group has accused the government of bad faith and being blinded by their own ambition. Needless to say that the whole conflict has been counterproductive for all involved. Thankfully, there is positives here as well. Officials from both sides have managed to keep some dialogue going and right now there is an act in Congress being debated on. This act, if successful and accepted by all involved, would see the repatriation of the resistance groups under the umbrella of the CAF.

As everyone keeps saying, the goal of both sides is the same: Free Canada and make her prosperous once more. It can only be seen favourably that this act would promote that ideal.

Where are we going?

The battle for Ontario has now been opened. The importance of this region can not be exagerated. With it's return, much of the manufacturing heart of Canada would return with it. As such Bruck's Canucks will be joining with all citizens, CAF and foreign allies in doing our best to free the region. Make no mistake, every single attack counts and helps. Every sacrifice to free the regions makes everyone one of us heroes in small ways.

We will continue to integrate new resistance fighters as they come to us, making sure our supply lines remain effective. The company and organization infrastructure will be strengthened to meet our growing needs. Much of our focus will continue to be on the volunteer workforce and what they can produce.

We will continue to work with government and CAF officials to increases our effectiveness and usefullness to Canada while maintaining our flexibility. We welcome the debate currently in Congress and are gladened by the endorsement given by President Jacobi.

We will expand our network of foreign contacts so that we can both teach and learn from them. This groups is not the only one of its kind and we can all use any available feedback.

As each region of Canada is liberated, the group appears to get stronger. This speaks well of the spirit of this great nation and the help we have gotten from our allies.

Thank you to all members, supporters and donors. You make this colossal endeavour all worthwhile.
