    Not helping veterans could turn into national security problem: Military Ombudsm

    Very true. I was admittedly overwhelmed with other things (mostly within my control but still time sensitive) but the seriousness of some of my med issues combined with my ongoing frustrations did not pan out well for me. Maybe even part of the release appts (case worker?) someone could vet the...

    Not helping veterans could turn into national security problem: Military Ombudsm

    Well... What I found the most troubling for me was the fact that I never received and tangible follow-up WRT my medical issues. I completely understand the doctor shortage (seemingly Canada-wide...) however the raft of medical issues which I was released for only compounded over the months...

    Therapeutic Cannabis use

    There is a great opportunity here to do actually that - run your tests, do your research. There is a viable base of thousands (read hundreds of willing participants) with bona-fide measures of broken... ask me all the questions you want. Extrapolate all the data you need. It will surprise you...

    Therapeutic Cannabis use

    Cannabis used in treatment of a psychosis IS relatively new. Prior to this, marijuana made Pink Floyd way cooler and pizza taste divine. No real studies, so we have to begin somewhere right? Marie Curie discovered radiation (which was here centuries before she was) and then died from it. Trial...

    Therapeutic Cannabis use

    I don't know this term... is this a real thing or just more sarcastic undertone?

    Therapeutic Cannabis use

    First, Marijuana For Trauma does not "flaunt" laws and "push" meds directly to people. I truly respect you and your posts Puck, however you are out of your lane here. Why don't you pop in to see me sometime? We'll go for a coffee and I would be more than happy to walk into MFT with you for a...

    Therapeutic Cannabis use

    Again, while I wasn't born yesterday I am under no illusion that there isn't abuse out there - human nature, sad but true. Marijuana is not a verified "gateway" drug. Used recreationally, users experience a high. I honestly believe that there are people with an "addictive" tendency who will...

    The disability award "top up".....not until 2017?

    I understand it this way: 2008 - Awarded 68,000 @ 25% (Based on 275,000) 2016 - Awarded 74,000 @ 25% (Based on 310,000) Retro should be: 2008 - 360,000 * 25% = 90,000 (90,000 - 68,000 = 22,000) 2016 - 360,000 * 25% = 90,000 (90,000 - 74,000 = 16,000) 22,000 + 16,000 = 38,000 Ish...

    Therapeutic Cannabis use

    Just a little bit from me - my 2cents on the topic. I never read John's links so I do apologize if this is repeating, but I do believe it bears some amplification. First, understand that my opinions are based on my disabilities and treatment. Results may be different for others, however fact is...

    Officers to the front of the line at clothing?

    I found this thread interesting how it morphed from Officers waiting in line at Clothing Stores to meal lines and weapons training to MIR / UMS lines... I think the common thread in all the posts were centered around "Who's more important?" "Who is a higher priority?" or "Who thinks they're the...

    Officers to the front of the line at clothing?

    Yeah no. That doesn't actually happen here in Gagetown.

    Retro Pay & Allow 1Apr 2014 - 1Apr 2017

    Honest question here - once everything works it's way through the sausage mill and the CANFORGEN is released, the CF pay is adjusted for the retro-pay. For those who WERE in uniform in 2014, 2015 and partially 2016 (then retired) would those of us who retired still be eligible to receive the...
