A major with line infantry combat experience and no CD? Must be a streamer. Meet the future CDS. /sarcasm OFF

I respectfully disagree. The average Canadian may not actually know any vets or serving members for that matter. Even if Vets are loud and proud, I don't think Vets issues will sway an election/popular opinion. The demographic is pretty small per capita and many (most?) are already vehemently...

Amen.

When has anything to do with pay and benefits been changed so the net effect ended up being "simpler and less expensive..." *cough* Phoenix *cough*

Amen to that. Plus, you will probably be asked what you do/intend to do in Canada. If you have desperate need to inform the customs officer you work in the military, that would be your opportune time.

I hope they were tasty. I understand you are in the process of joining the military. Great! We need eager young folks who want to serve and I applaud your enthusiasm. You will learn over time on this forum (and very quickly in the military) it's important to know when to listen and when to...

The poster you are replying to is not in the military, and could very well question orders from his higher ups if he so chose. Teachers are not superior officers, and though there is lots about his post I disagree with, there are many university courses taught be students only a few years ahead...

Hi Youngger, you may remember me from such memorable posts as your first one, involving failure in training. You may have noticed by now that you're being "watched" by the Mod team here at army.ca and some of your posting privileges may already be restricted. I feel like you maybe haven't heeded...

Good Day youngger@12 and welcome to army.ca! I notice this is your first post. You chose an odd sub-forum to post in. In reviewing the previous thread responses, I'm curious what your intention was in posting your excerpt. You haven't attached any opinions, nor anything of your own to this...

Your post indicates you fundamentally misunderstand the relationship between the RMP and CFNIS, charge laying, the court martial system and how plea agreements work. We don't drop a file on the RMPs desk after months of work and then say, "alright, here it is then, good luck". They are never...

The short answer is... sort of. Persons who execute a warrant are required to file a Report To Justice stating if and when the warrant was executed and what they seized. These are often forgotten however. I've personally not seen a Report to Justice issue come up in a trial, but I'm only one...

Yes. Supreme Court Rulings apply to Courts Martial, however I'm not sure the ceiling has been reached or whether a defence delay application has been advanced. There is case law out there somewhere that defence is supposed to make their delay applications as early as they can in the process, so...

The above is easily the most mis-interpreted part of the Charter. People seem to think it protects you against other peoples conduct, but that isn't what it's for. It exists to prevent government over-reach, whether by unlawful detention, search and seizure, or to break up lawful and peaceful...

I just checked my upcoming pay statement in EMAA and the backpay is there along with the new pay rate... ;D

While there is no statute of limitations for sexual assault, investigations have to use the legal standard of the time. For example, an incident that took place in 1985, would need to use the 1985 Criminal Code as a benchmark. It's also important to note, if it's a CFNIS investigation, it's...

That's a complicated question, but not necessarily the right one. As we've discovered with other agencies, some of the unfounded allegations are most likely a clerical error when we conclude our files. Unfounded was used a lot when not enough evidence existed to charge someone. On the face of...

I don't understand you. You posted in a thread about Legal Cannabis use, alluding to knowledge of illegal cannabis use. That wasn't the discussion. Then, when you are called on your knowledge of illegal cannabis use, you hide behind some kind of excuse involving your interpersonal relationships...

While I can't speak for the entire MP Branch, tips, calls, etc, do should be looked at. Sometimes they are just used to build an intelligence narrative, or to justify expanding a current investigation to include new suspects, and sometimes they just sit as information that is good to know. I...

I'd like to start by pointing out that "off duty" has very little meaning to it when we are talking about (still) illegal drugs (even marijuana). On a visit to Victoria, the PM stated very clearly that possession of MJ was still illegal. (caveats abound here). The MP detachment would start an...

And you don't report these (still) illegal actions to your chain of command or the Military Police as you are obligated and ordered to do so?
