    Folks, I have restored this topic for any that wish to comment further. Please note the Staff will be keeping a close eye on this topic. Trolling, personal attacks, and incivility of any type will not be tolerated. Further, in the event this discussion moves further into political...

    Run Up to Election 2019

    A lot of immigration to the West Coast in the last 30+ years has come from cultures that are what we would cast as "small-c" social conservative. Some of those values are still in play amongst the "those most likely to vote" populace.

    Married Service Couples [MSC]

    What a load of malarkey. I've been in for 12 years, married for nearly 8. I know a lot of service couples who have been married for nearly as long as I have, and have held it down through deployments, taskings, children and all manner of stressors. I know a ton of folks where one spouse is in...

    Married Service Couples [MSC]

    I'm not sure what makes you believe he is infantry? His profile lists his current unit as CFLTC and his MOSID as 00117... His post history states he CT'd from reserve infantry to Reg F MSE Op. His posting options are nearly limitless. I'd like to emphasize the point in yellow. Before I was...

    Senior promotions, appointments and retirements (merged)

    If you read the CANFORGEN more carefully, you'll note the laundry list of retirements at the end are mostly all personnel already mentioned in the preceding paragraphs. All of which are positions which now have incumbents. A net positive to the number of GOFO personnel heading into APS.

    Medical Rejection: How to Appeal? [Merged]

    Before I begin, I'd like to point out I am both a frequent user of the ATI and Privacy (ATIP) Process in the course of investigations, and have had myself and my work the subject of numerous ATI requests, so I'm somewhat familiar with the process. Freedom of Information Access to Information...

    Questions about Marriage in the CAF [Merged]

    This should be prominently displayed at every section expected to conduct personal admin on behalf of members, at every base, station, wing and detachment. As an aside, as you're on BTL (again) really ensure all that paperwork is good to go and your dependants are listed and collocated with...

    Rate of Pay on Appointment to the Public Service

    Good Day T. Triumph, Welcome to army.ca. I note this is your first post. I had a read through it and through the attached document, but it's not entirely clear what you are seeking. You've started with your belief regarding discrimination in the PS against reservists. Is it possible for you...

    VAdm Norman - Supply Ship contract: Legal fight

    Despite any political misgivings people may have, I would expect senior public servants to *not* commit perjury. If and when they do testify, if there are allegations such as the one above, I expect they will enjoy the same presumption of innocence the rest of us, VAdm Norman included, enjoy.

    Canadian soldiers suffer frostbite during winter training

    I think we fail in far more then just tents... for an army that operates North of 49, we have procurement issues with a host of cold weather related items...

    Chief Military Judge Col Mario Dutil Charged

    To address the example you laid out BTN, judges are not part of any charge laying or investigative process. That territory lies firmly with the unit or NIS in consultation with Director Military Proesecutions. If there is a conflict of interest here, it’s not on the part of judges adjuticating...

    RCMP raids in Kingston part of national security investigation

    I think it's important to remember that in twenty five thousand of ANYTHING, there are bound to be some bad apples. For example, if you take twenty five thousand military members at random, statistically speaking, you will have at least a few pedophiles, some sexual predators, some thieves...

    RCMP raids in Kingston part of national security investigation

    Truer words were never spoken. Clearly something substantiated both the search warrant and resulting charges. Eventually the case will wind its way through the justice system, and we'll learn more. Until that time, it's all speculation based on rumour and innuendo and an extremely selective...

    Shaving while off duty

    Your definition of fun and mine differ significantly. I'll add that the issued belt is typically somewhere just below the nipple line on most specimens I've witnessed. As an aside: How to dress yourself...

    Passengers unable to leave plane on Goose Bay tarmac during extreme cold warning

    I’ve never been to Goose Bay but my understanding is it’s TINY. There may not be a place to wait prior to customs, or maybe not even someone available to unlock the doors. We’re not dealing with a 24/7 airport. Most of the day to day staff probably work only part time a la other Northern or...

    VAC Return to Lifetime Pensions Discussion

    To add to what Brihard has stated, I know several people who have taken advantage of this benefit to completely fund the programs which would otherwise have cost them tens of thousands of dollars. If you're planning on pursuing education after the military or a new vocation its basically free...

    Trump directs creation of 'space force' as sixth branch of military

    We're going to see a Space Force Comedy Series before we see a Space Force... I really enjoyed The Office, so I may watch. I *hope* it stays grounded to lampooning aspects of military life (in space?) and stays away from politics as another venue to poke the US president in the eye.
