    Storage of household goods?

    Interesting question actually. Im single, no dependents, no house, appartment.  With a fair amount of furniture. From what I understand, the typical training cycle for new Officers in the Cbt Arms right now is about 2-3 years, all depending (Im pretty sure Ill be SLT exempt, so maybe slightly...

    Ottawa to fund relaunch of CMR

    Indeed, at the very least there were 150 cadets 5 years ago in Prep Year (dont know what the current number is, probably not far off). The college already had a CEGEP program.... this announcement means an additional year of that program.  They havent said whether the accreditation is still...

    I Need Your Opinion Ref: negative feed back from family

    I had lower than an 83 and got into RMC.  Mind you, I had significant real world leadership experience that helped overcome that.  There is always CEOTP as well. Question is - do you want an Officer's job, or do you want an NCMs?

    Ottawa to fund relaunch of CMR

    My prep year experience was (roughly): 50% Quebec 50% the rest, mostly from: - Nova Scotia - Alberta - NFLD - A few from the others. Something about math curricula not being as strong in those provinces as in Quebec or Ontario, as well as students with poorer grades but solid...

    Ottawa to fund relaunch of CMR

    Calvalryman - "Back then" :)  What was the language/providence ratio?  Was it all from the Belle Province?  I'm curious what the criteria was to end up at CMR vice RMC or RRMC.

    Ottawa to fund relaunch of CMR

    Really? I thought that CMR was a full degree-granting institution before... I've heard of officers saying they got their Eng degrees there, I'm pretty sure....  was this just in the last few years before the cut?

    What steps to take to rectrify the problem of my denial due to one issue ?

    Not to throw salt on your wounds, but you knew going in that you were not as medically fit as the average Canadian - the average Canadian is not deaf in one ear.  With this in mind, you certainly set yourself up for a heavy fall if you expected that the Canadian Forces would have simply...

    Ottawa to fund relaunch of CMR

    From reading around here, I've seen they've been filling the place up since I was there...  we housed the entire Squadron (150 or so) in one of the barracks (moved midway to renovate).   That was two to a room....    Either renovate and add a few beds in first year rooms (still more room than at...

    Ottawa to fund relaunch of CMR

    My guess: RMC/CMR (Kingston) CMR (St-Jean) [Edited to add] May confuse the whole college number thing.  "Whats your college number"... "Mais, j'en ais deux mon ami!"... "Awww crap, both are lower than mine, do I owe you two now?"

    Arty Officer Update

    Hi all... Upon hearing that CEOTP armour is no longer available, but that ARTY certainly is, I've been doing some more investigation on the ARTY side of things. Unfortunately, it would appear this is a quieter side of army.ca A few questions I'm hoping someone can provide me recent answers...
