The real Canadian way is buy enough of a spare to manage the fleet for years, but then somehow have all the parts in 1 or 2 units and complain that there are no parts.

You belong to a support base. Ask your ULO, likely they will do the same thing they do for the unit's in your area. Either through a pre-arranged contract or via CF52 (minor claim)

I listen to that podcast and then the news broke that the deal fell apart. I was like that aged like milk. Looking forward to the next iteration that's for sure

Pretty sure canning SQ was a CA internal decision not pressure from purple folks. Bringing back SQ does noting for purple folks. It isn't part of their DP training, so like SQ the CA is going to have to get purp folks up to speed upon posting in to a CA position Facts, or align them the same...

I have seen that pack list it is good stuff. There are similar variations floating around the CA, I say variations as beyond an annual generic L1 list of approved items to buy for each Op LENTUS season, each Div did their own thing. Often driven based on the what the provinces provided for any...

I mean we did exactly that so yes...but please no. Please no

Agreed. My other hope is we get out of huge one off buys and just continually upgrade the fleets over time.

As long as you're showing back up to RMC with all the right leave burnt, it shouldn't be an issue to them and really they have no authority if you're properly attached posted. However, if you're getting short leave and not burning all your annual leave that you need to burn during the summer...
