The US, and other countries, has no equivalent cadet program to ours and yet they seem to do OK with recruiting.
Just sayin'
You'd free up a lot of NIS's time if you stood down the Cadet program.

Doctors, nurses and medical techs volunteering for the reserves.
The Cadet program probably ties up more resources then most people are aware of.

Things are looking up at Ryerson (currently operating as Toronto Metropolitan).
1. It is not a pro-Palestinian rant.
2. It says nothing about DEI
3. I like it.

I saw this. I have a few questions about how they are measuring these things. So based on these numbers as I understand them, 2.8% of Cadets end up joining the CAF.

Still better than the general population
In fiscal year 2025/26, the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) enrolled 7,310 new Regular Force members, a 10-year high. While the CAF is growing, the percentage of the overall population (roughly 41 million) that joins annually is very small, representing less than \(0.02\%\) of the total population in recent recruiting years.

There is a cohort of people who despise the cadet programme, and look for any way to justify ending it. Nothing short of 100% of all cadets becoming JTF assaulters will convicne them that the programme is worth the cost.
Yeah, but 2.8% fall way short of what some people would have you believe. Those numbers are kind of disappointing considering how much is put into the Cadet program. The other number I would like to know is how many of those former Cadets join the CIC as opposed to other areas. The CIC are needed to support the Cadet program, but that isn't creating recruits for the rest of the CAF.

That is because there is a level of leadership that appears to be determined to separate Cadets from all things CAF, except the money and support. That needs a top down correction. At the Cadet level I would have a program within the existing program that would see Cadets at 15/16 who have expressed interest in the CAF, get loaded onto deployments and courses that will help them understand and prepare for the career they are looking at. We used to interact much closers with the Cadets before and many became fine CAF members.

If you can send me a photo of that I might be able to find out who produced it at Deloitte...
