    Maaaan Alpha, just call your CFRC and just say you're ready to go for a medical... pretty crappy theyre dicking you around like this.

    I can't find anyone that will fill in my paper from the medical.

    That's definetely not what I meant, I think you may have misread or lost context. What I meant was instead of having to send reports to the military and do all this dancing around, have one of the doctors (the psychologist or pediatrician in this case) write a letter stating he is fit. In his...

    Applying as infantry

    I also recommend the Co-op. I was set to do it in high school but I ended up taking a job shadowing instead. A friend of mine did it and he ended up getting in right after as an MP. I still hold strong that you should get a hold of your high school diploma first, as the military isn't 100%...

    InDemand: Good time to apply?

    I'm a little curious about his too, actually. I applied back in February when the trade I wanted came in-demand but by the time my waiver was approved it disappeared.. but is now in-demand again. I'm curious how in-demand works when they have people merit listed for trades. Does it mean there...

    I can't find anyone that will fill in my paper from the medical.

    I ws going to suggest.. if you can't get documentation about it just have the doctor write you a quick letter saying there's nothing of interest

    Tips for to go from strength to cardio training

    Couldn't find much on this topic, so here it is.. lock or no lock. I do a lot of weight lifting with about 10-20 minutes of cardio tossed into each workout. I don't usually go full house on the cardio, and I'm starting to realize that my cardio needs improving, and I don't want to be that guy...

    Advice for tough situation

    I graduated from paramedic back in 2013. I took up a chemical plant safety job and did that before moving out to Newfoundland to take a paramedic job. It's pretty bleak at the moment, but Ontario just did a big PCP hiring, but I felt I wasn't ready to apply for anything at home.  I also didn't...

    Advice for tough situation

    It really doesn't make much rational sense. I'm pursuing EI right now as a precaution before jumping in to a legal battle with anymore. As for references, I just ended up getting 2 from my a couple of my coworkers who had been working there for a few years now. It's quite discouraging having...

    General Medical Questions [Merged]

    What they did for me was they went over paperwork that you have to read over and sign. Then they'll go down a list of health problems and you tell them if you have one of them. They'll also ask for some of your families history as well. Then they do a hearing, colour, and vision test, followed...

    Advice for tough situation

    Luckily for me I was well over my probation heh. Here I worked 7 days on 2 off 7 on 5 off, 24hour shifts.. and only getting paid for 8, and no OT.. it's a rough go out here. Also since I'm in a more rural part of the province, I was working for a large private service. It was definetely not a...

    Advice for tough situation

    Nope. I got called by my dispatch to do an 8 hour run, 1 hour from shift change. Now normally in cases like this we just switch off with another crew but for some reason this time it went all to hell. Because the call was a non-urgent intra-facility transfer, I arranged with my dispatch center...

    Extracurricular

    Best thing I would personally do, if you can, is go to your family doctor to have a note saying you're clear. During the medical they'll probably ask you to get something from your doctor about it. I don't see why it would be a problem, as long as you're a functioning and contributing member of...

    Advice for tough situation

    Thanks for the advice. I've been quite honest about the entire thing with the Labour Board here, and soon Service Canada. One of the issues I face here is I am from out of province, and only am in this province for work. Starting legal action is a huge undertaking away from home heh. Another...

    Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

    I realize that, I didn't say he would or wouldn't, just eventually or one day. I don't think someone wants to hear another person tell them they'll never get in. Besides, he may make it. Whether he chooses to get medical insurance is up to him, doesn't reflect what so ever on your app.

    Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

    The military doesn't care if you're insured or anything lol. They give you insurance when you eventually get in.
