I have no jump experience. The highlighted part sounds similar to hitting the emergency brakes when you really wanted to reach for the break pedal?

Correct. Collecting CPP does not change your IRB, because CPP is an offset dollar for dollar. You need to communicate your intentions of when you begin to collect CPP, if you choose to delay, or draw early, because VAC will assume age 65.

Under the current Canadian disaster response plan, NGO volunteers are expected to deploy between 7 to 21 days, for a single event. In 2023, the East coast saw three major events requiring both civilization and CAF deployments. So achieving a 30 day cumulative criteria is currently possible and...

If a civilian version of FEMA could earn a medal for 30 cumulative days in a calendar year, a CAF medal with similar criteria makes sense.

You did read that off of moral patch, right? :LOL:

It was an optional recommended reading for an Advanced Research Methods - Thesis preparation. course. One of the article writers was the course professor and one was a guest speaker for the course.

Yes, That was my second reference. :LOL:

No. To save money, federal and provincial governments will rely on the cheaper option of NGOs and volunteers. Reference: Public safety volunteers. (2024). Government of British Columbia. Public safety volunteers Thurton, D. (2024, May 11). Ottawa turns to civilian first responders as...

I will miss his sharp whit and rhetoric. Debating with him would be an experience. Condolences to his family.

DEC can be reviewed and removed if a veteran's status has changed substantially. The bar measuring the removal of DEC is higher than the bar for being deemed incapacitated. So earning a degree on it's own does not always trigger a review. The Education Training Benefit (ETB) is available for any...

Unless we declare martial law, unorganised events will occur for this event. No State, Province or community in the path of the solar eclipse requested the privilege of hosting this event. All they can do is plan for it as best as possible, to mitigate the worst effects.

I have not heard anyone describing the solar eclipse as the hazard for this event. Instead, based on the 2017 experiences of states under the last eclipse, the large influx of human activity overwhelmed local capacity--see the portion of the definition "of an impending situation"--is the...

Like any other job, when you do it right nobody notices or complains. If someone is complaining, they either don't have all the facts or haven't considered all the information. In this case, being prepared for a worst case scenario is the right thing to do. If nothing happens, great...and if the...

That may be confused with the newly announced (today) Nova Scotia Guards. 😅

Isn't that how NCdts (Naval Cadets) are born? 🤤
