So I have just been told by a retiree that once you start getting CPP that it comes off of your military pension. How does that work?

The new berets are a dark blue not a royal blue. I was helping out with RCEME when it was being worked on years ago and got a royal blue beret from the UK. It was declined at that time as costly but I guess when the Artillery got in on it it was worth it. The UK beret is a real blue, the new one...

I had heard, or thought I did, that if there was no paid parking near a DND property that DND could not charge for parking there. Is this true?

So I have applied for a bunch of PS jobs over the last year and have not been successful. I applied to one in November and in April they asked for more information and a few weeks later I was told I didn't make the cut. It was a job that I had lots of experience in both in the Military and...

Yes Im ok with the Pipes and Drums wearing the kilt. What this discussion has developed from is RCN and RCAF guys wearing a kilt in mess dress with no authorization what so ever and no right to based on the traditions of the RCAF and RCN. If a Pipe band member wanted to wear a kilt in mess dress...

Remius, When the Black Watch was raised in the 1720s it was the only Regt in kilts and then the rest of the Regts of Higlanders were raised and eventualy all wore kilts. I think that this would make kilts "Army" The only kilts worn when the air force was raised were by Scottish officers seconded...

Why does the RCN and RCAF keep trying to steal Army stuff when you have your own traditional dress? If you want to wear a kilt then join a highland regt. Just because you have a Scottish background dosnt mean you get to wear what you want. There are dress Regs, so obey the damn things. Why...

Flat feet arent a problem, I have very flat feet and have lasted 33 years in the Army. I have Sole brand insoles in my boots/shoes and they are only 50 bucks. Do exercises to strengthen your arches and practice running and ruck marches and you will be fine.

So it certainly seems like this redress will be a waste of time. I seriously cant see that it is ok for someone else to know your med cat and information before you do. The member still has not received the Docs or even know what the limitations are yet. I think its time for me to get out of the...

The member had been doing the job for the last 5 months. He passed a Force test and does cardio running and weights every second day. I repeat again. The members BP was high at the Part 2 Medical but is not always high.

The CoC has been informed that the member will be putting in a redress. Weather or not it has made it up to the CO I don't know. It was 100% that he had the job. The member saw another civilian doctor at NDMC two days after the Part 2 medical and was told the limitations had no effect on the job...

Ok I am just about to give up helping this guy. The Redress has been written. He has gone through all the process material. All he needs is proper references as his were too generic. This is what we are asking. Remember this is a Class A reservist. He is not going to get follow on treatment or...

Well he knows he cant really get anything because you cant get remuneration for work not done, it is being done to get the CoC to see what is happening. You kick a guy out of a job because he has high BP because he's stressed and you add more stress and take away his money and expect his BP to...

Because this guy is a reservist he can no longer work till the Tcat is lifted, he has no money coming in. He now has to find a civilian doctor as he is only class A and cant get further treatment for the blood pressure. Once he finds a doctor who can clear him he is pooched.

He isn't Grieving the MO putting him on a Tcat, he is grieving the fact that he was not informed nor was his CO until after the employing unit was. There was no CF-2088 given to the member. As to the blood pressure. He is not grieving this. It is the process being redressed. The member had...

Member had a short term class be that was turned into a 3 year. He got and medical and on the part 2 it was deemed that he had high blood pressure. The MO said he couldn't clear him. Member didn't get a chit at the end of the appt. Nothing was said about a Tcat. Later he found out that the MO...

I am looking for some specific references for a Redress of Grievance. Looked at the QR & Os but was told that the references were too generic. Looking for refs for Protected B docs being given to an employer  before member or members CoC. Refs for MO not giving paperwork after an apt and being...

The ongoing care is for high blood pressure (resting 135/86/64 up to 150/95/79 after exercise) so they didn't want to give him a chit just in case something happened. He's had this high BP all his life.

A buddy of mine is going for a class B job and did his part II but didn't get a chit because he will get some more care. He's not on category but needs to prove that to get the job. How can this be done?
