Nothing confirmed yet but CTV is reporting it as well. http://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/jonathan-vance-to-be-named-chief-of-defence-staff-1.2310799

some more on the events surrounding Sgt Doiron death. http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/andrew-doiron-s-colleagues-held-fire-when-kurds-turned-guns-on-them-1.2993010

Here are your clearly defined front lines: http://static1.businessinsider.com/image/54f85dedecad04621e6eb466-954-702/screen%20shot%202015-03-05%20at%208.44.27%20am.png from one source. It would be a stretch to say that the front lines are clearly defined. Here is another, a bit older, that...

FYI, the CMP is not a Logistician, she is an Engineer (mind you, Air) - but just appointed so chances are she will stay there for a while. Your allusion to the VCDS being somewhat more competent than the others is a stretch; they all got there because they are competent,  in any role. (although...

You have a source to back up your comment?

Indeed, as "general" officer, after attending command colleges, joint staffs colleges, etc. they should be pretty much interchangeable - of course, there will always be some biases...

the only issue might be with security clearance. You might not get Top Secret right away (if required). For most occupations, secret is enough. For TS they need to confirm your history back 10yrs.

I would wear it

2nd above post and would add that if you are being screened for TS that they will try to talk with (some) one around where you live regardless of who you indicate :-)

The RCMP will only get to look at the relevant pieces of the pie as ascertained by a, maybe joint, review of the information. They will not and should not have access to all of it. (as much as that may pain some ppl, the RCMP is not in the business of intelligence - in a broad sense -  but law...

+++ :salute:

Here are two of them; another one aced the Sapper course a couple of years ago and another one is fitter than her SOF boyfriend (according to him)... https://www.facebook.com/100533039582/photos/a.10152684702454583.1073741890.100533039582/10152684703199583/?type=1&fref=nf They came in 22nd and...

Piece of cake! I personally know at lest 6 Female officers/ncm in the engineers that can do that every other day, even if you add another 4 pull-ups (which the hardest part for females.)

If you come to Ottawa, we are hiring :-) 33 CER (combat engineer, engineer officer) has a bunch of spots open - I won't say the number as other units might get jealous: officers: 2 or 3 (preferably an Engineering degree program but a science degree may be acceptable) ncm: quite a few including...

Being in their good books is a sensible thing but you are right, I can't readily think of anything. Softwood? beef? farm subsidies? fishing? territorial disputes?

Brownie points, legacy... precisely. I disagree with the author painting this as the same "war" as in 2003. Totally different situation now.

I may not agree but I respect what you wrote in that post, except for this. There is no such thing as 'allowable moral turpitude' and, if you think there is or ought to be in the army, have a look at the events that led to the disbandment of the Airborne Regiment. I hope none here condones that...

Unfortunately, that is common with the Engineers.

I disagree. Yes the MND "the person with overall authority" but we, as the public, should be able to get our information or opinions on the state of DND and CAF from other than the conflicted party or the auditor general. Otherwise, how is the general public to know any better than what the...

You and a lot of other ppl keep lumping "Syrian Rebels" all together - out of a dozen-and-a-half different groups the int orgs had a hard time keeping up on their background, intentions, allegiances, etc. and whether they would survive or not or get assimilated by another group. So it was hard...
