I have been living on the same street for 11 years now, I have seen 3 Commanding Officers come and go on this street. It's not often that I see anyone of them outside. In fact, I always seen their respective others outside with the kids playing or even operating the snow blower. Often their...

Here we go, you all know that the ex GG will not be held accountable for anything. It all will sweep away, no matter what Government is in place. I applaud the person(s) who raised the alarm in the first place, that's what we need . I am still trying to figure out what is the role of a GG, to...

I was debating which room to post this, so my apologies if this not the correct place. While TV surfing, I came across something by CNN and the possible upcoming impeachment. The President will receive a yearly pension of $200,000 plus 1 million for travel, plus money to upkeep a office and...

Society is changing no matter what, whether we like it or not, we all have to adapt to it. It almost gets to the point where it is best to stay home! Even when you do that, sometimes the neighbors are thinking you are weird or you are hiding something! If it's not already, it's becoming a crazy...

I have personally seen a MWO flat dismiss an official harassment complaint against a CO. In fact, the MWO response was, "he is the CO, he can say and do what he wants". I was one of the harassment personnel in the unit. I simply asked who is the contact at HQ .. I was denied several times for a...

That seems like a lot of things to be conscious of. That’s the point of all this conversations. When I served, I learn to always have a witness to any conversation with any subordinate. It is amazing how much it gets twisted. Second, it’s a Shame that we have to record conversations Because...

If you are 100%, does Reassessments matter at all?

Most CAF MBRs can't escape a toxic work environment that easily!

You are right about that. Some ways that people was treated 30-40 years ago is just wrong. I remember on a harrassment briefing, a question was asked, "If a person overheard a conversation between other people that offended the person over hearing it, could they make a harrassment complaint?"...

You are so right with having an external review. But I am not sure about a profile civilian doing it as there might be some political pressure involved. Someone of normal stature would probably be just as good if not better, but it is a big steep mountain to climb. I feel bad for the next...

I have to agree with you. What ever happen to keeping thing simple?? Your comment on "Canadian Forces progressively sound like our leaders download buzz word generators to see who can compete for the most corporate sounding business executives as possible" pretty much sounds looking after...

We all witness in todays society the amount of changes that have taken place. Some is good changes, some is just silly. An example of this is the recent change of sports team being force to change their names because after many years some people are taking offense to it. The NFL team Washington...

We are really not in the war business at all, not even sure what business we are in! However the CAF is heading (if not already) in a really big mess. IMO, it starts with Leadership and the lack accountability that follows . When was the last time someone heard Snr Leadership admit to a mistake...

We did not sweep the floors for fun, what I am saying is that when we did sweep the floors on a friday afternoon or any day, we made it into a fun time! We laughed and had fun doing it. Our Supervisors at the time never helped us, but it did not matter. I found that those supervisors never...

I am now at 120% with two more disability applications in waiting. I am capped out at 100%. IMO I don't agree with it. Each claim/ body part should be its own not combine with others to reach 100%. When I look at 100%, someone should be getting the 300,000$ + amount. I never got that in total.

The Military is great opportunity for an career and stable income. But probably some work needs to be done with the pensions. However some places don't even offer a pension. As a teenager, I always wanted to be in the Military, I wanted that pride, I wanted to wear that uniform. The first...

Outside the Military, I have NDT qualification that I completed 20 years ago. In the Military, I was a Medical Technician. Most days, I have pain just throwing a snowball, or even using the washroom. Manulife is funding me right now for school but I am having extreme difficulty with my physical...

Is DEC a hard thing to get? I know nothing is a guarantee except for taxes and death.

Hello, It's been awhile since I been on this site, nice to see some new changes..! What does SISIP/ Manulife consider as a disability in order to receive payments for the rest of your life?? I have not asked my Case Manager yet but I am seeing a lot ex military being turned down for some...

Vac website does not have any wait time listed for additional pain and suffering benefit, does anyone have any insight on this?
