    Here’s What To Do If A Border Guard Wants To Search Your Phone

    There are more than a few apps like that, we get some training on spotting them, no doubt CBSA does as well. Fortunately, if we're at a stage where we're "ripping" the phone, the files are still discoverable. I would argue that you are obligated to truthfully declare what you are carrying -...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    I received mine through a message that I imagine first arrived at the designated authority for such personnel decisions (Adjutant or Unit CWO) who then filtered the message down the chain of command to myself, where I could choose to sign or not sign, then it was submitted back up the chain...

    2018 pay increase?

    If the CBC article is accurate, that seems like a pretty weak sauce first offer, considering the hardship many were put through...

    Phoenix Pay System - Shit's Horrible

    :ditto: times a thousand. I can only assume the unions have something in the works, because I'm utterly flabbergasted there aren't massive walk outs every single day. I'm sorry, I'm not being paid, I don't work. You want to fire me for not showing up to work? I'll take it to arbitration...

    DUI/impaired driving in CF (merged)

    How is a members chain of command going to "avoid" a right enshrined by s. 11(h) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms? It's pretty clear. You cannot be charged twice for the same circumstances. There are no "workarounds" to add an extra dose of discipline on top of criminal charges. s. 11(h)...

    DUI/impaired driving in CF (merged)

    There is a principal in Canadian law and enshrined in our Charter known as "Double Jeopardy". Essentially what it boils down to is you cannot be tried twice for the same conduct/offences. As impaired driving charges are typically heard in the criminal justice system, a Summary Trial or Court...

    DUI/impaired driving in CF (merged)

    Folks, Pre-emptive comment here: The OP has come here and self disclosed something that paints them in an unfavourable light in order to seek guidance with the "what now". This thread is going to remain a place only to answer the questions asked by the OP - not to judge the OP on their...

    DUI/impaired driving in CF (merged)

    If you are expecting to graduate (and presumably that comes with a posting) within the next couple of months, you should be aware that first court date is likely only a First Appearance. Even if you intend to plead guilty, there will likely be other court dates further down the road before the...

    Sig Sauer P225

    I would just like to point out one thing, your right to "free speech" is not as expansive as you think. First, it only guarantees a right to speak free of state interference - not an unalienable right to say whatever you want whenever you want without challenge. Any private person can shut down...

    Sig Sauer P225

    This should prove to be an interesting discussion topic. There are more than a few areas where significant changes would need to take place in both law and policy before this could become reality. Who templates and certifies the private range for CF weapons? Does DND pay for that? What happens...

    Not to sound combative, but what would you suggest the military do about gun legislation? What permission does the military have the authority to grant?

    Special forces looks at recruiting off the street amid shifting demands

    I can't speak for anyone else here, but I'm not trying to disrespect you mate. You posted something that was contentious (and possibly erroneous to some), people (including myself) replied with our own assessment of a part of what you posted. That's the end. It's not low hanging fruit - it's...

    Special forces looks at recruiting off the street amid shifting demands

    I'm not sure I agree with this statement. Perhaps in garrison, they pay is not swell - but how many 18 year olds with no education are even making 40K a year with the option of what ends up being heavily discounted living arrangements, contribution towards a decent pension and full benefits...

    Alleged PMO obstruction in SNC Lavalin case

    I’ve never seen the system work that way... for example, we charged someone with child pornography offences in 2016 for offences that took place prior to the change and addition of mandatory minimum sentencing. Even though the charges, trial and verdict were all within the new sentencing regime...

    Alleged PMO obstruction in SNC Lavalin case

    It's very odd to me that a DPA could even be considered in this case at all. At my office, we're often dealing with historical files where someone comes in to report a matter 20, 30 sometimes even 50 years old - as a first report. If we were to successfully locate the subject and grounds exist...

    Alleged PMO obstruction in SNC Lavalin case

    I don't necessarily agree. Now that this issue is in the open, there will be a veritable feeding fest as media dials up every source they have in the government looking for additional tidbits, other allegations of corruption, anything they can even remotely connect to this issue (think VAdm...

    Alleged PMO obstruction in SNC Lavalin case

    It was mentioned earlier in the thread, but I believe a good source of that calm and composed nature was she could fall back on her notes which were made contemporaneously. When I'm in court getting cross examined, I have always been thankful to "past self" for taking good clear notes...
