    Army Reserve Restructuring

    From my understanding based on this thread that is what will happen based on the repurposing and renumbering of the divisions. When is this supposed to happen? (I'm assuming right before a Remembrance Day so the whole Army can try and figure out the new division patches at the same time).

    Personally, I just wouldn't bother showing up, but I would also never join a union.

    Canada Post Woes (merged)

    Considering that cellphones and the internet were invented in the early 1970s, unless someone is 104 or older, cellphones and the internet have been around for more of their life than they weren't. The reality is that it is getting more and more difficult to communicate with someone who chooses...

    LCBO theft

    Well, their policies are that their staff are not allowed to intervene in a theft. From what I understand, it many cases they won't even bother to report it to the police.

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    I can't wait for the "I, by the way, you need to be in Montreal tomorrow." Also, I guess we are seeing some of the barriers between Anglophones and Francophones being broken. The current divisional alignment does reduce the amount of interaction meaning that someone who only speaks one language...

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Blackdown is another one. I've been staff on multiple weekend BMQs that have stayed in those tents/shelters without heat. I remember on workup for the G20 someone in leadership got annoyed that troops hanging out in the heated bathrooms that direction came down that we were not allowed to set...

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    So if they are looking to make the reserves more self sufficient and are talking about switching units roles, does that potentially mean that we are looking at a few infantry units converting to service battalions?

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    So if I'm tracking one Division of 3 x CMBG One Division of 10 x CBC One Support Division And a training establishment In place of geographic divisions, we will have functional ones. In a way is this at least at first going to result in less support functions for the ARes? At the very least...

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    There's the rub in the reserves when it comes to serving two masters at the same time. I've seen Battle School say that instructors are not required to do unit training and seen the unit completely blow that off and they then that they are Class B and they belong to the military, so they will...

    I suppose by tradition I am required to support England (because Scotland has been eliminated). If it wasn't for this thread, I wouldn't have known that this was happening.

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    I'm referring to the graph that presented each unit as being reduced to a sub-unit. 250 (actual) and 320 (authorized) are approximates from my own unit I am referring to that specific example. 120 is the approximate size of a dismounted Infantry company. I am well aware of the extra elements...
