The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. Not usually my style but I caught the show on HULU and it was actually really good. 1984 but with chicks. It's kind of messed up to think some parts of the world are actually not dissimilar to this book...

Vince Li actually gives me the heebie jeebies dude. Can't believe he is out.

Just thought it might be cathartic to write about my recruiting process so far and a bit of background about me as an individual. Thanks for reading in advance. I am a Vancouverite born and raised, since a young age I had always been enthralled by the military and committed to joining back in...

http://globalnews.ca/news/3634762/us-bombers-korean-peninsula-north-korea-missile-test/ In response to the latest test by NK of their Hwasong-14 ICBM. It seems like once a month these guys get up in everyone's face. I don't know if it's just me but I used to think NK was a bit of a joke (in...

I have looked pretty hard but can't find anything relating to trade eligibility standards in relation to learning disabilities (some good looking links but they died I suppose). To be fair, I think my "learning disability" is a joke, basically got diagnosed in the late 90's when a wave of panic...

This was the post I was referring to. I did however call a file manager this morning and he told me not to worry about it. Figured I'd ask in the interest of being transparent in that I didn't want to seem like I was omitting anything, which he said was fine and again to not worry as they...

Was reading through the earlier pages of this thread and came across a post saying nicotine and caffeine are on the past drug use form. I don't remember seeing them though? Does anyone know if they are there and if so should I call my CFRC and ask them to update my file for coffee drinking daily...

And so my watch begins.

Thanks Gryphon! I'm good then as I haven't left anything out. I know I can stay clean no problem, just gotta wait now! Thanks so much for all your help!

You're not wrong. Thanks Gryphon! Just one addendum however, once my 10 months is up how do I address the past use going forward? I assume it may come up in medical and/or interview? Basically the form on past use I found super weird. It doesn't really give a good look at specifics...

Oh? That seems like an awkward kind of phone call but I get your meaning. Just call them and tell them I'm still interested or ask about my hold? Thanks mate!

damn. This is getting out of hand. Text never translates feeling exactly the way you want it to. I didn't mean to be condescending I meant to convey that I understand my choices have made my bed for me and I plan to work through it. But thank you for the advice you're right, I shouldn't become...

I am don't worry pops! I promise I'll keep off the grass.  ^-^ I'm not sure what tone you think I was trying to strike but just so we're all crystal clear I want this more than anything so yeah, 10 months sucks, but not joining because of a stupid reason like continuing to smoke pot is way...

Just for posterity. I wrote my CFAT this morning and the file manager said I did fine but that due to previous drug use I would be getting a 10 month hold on my file and to call to re-open May 1st 2018. As disappointed as I am I want this and so should you, but just know if you've done things...

IMHO The reason you guys (and all Canadians) SHOULD be pissed off is because if the feds grew a pair and handled it back in the Chretien & Harper days our current gov't wouldn't have to pay this guy a dime. I don't know if he is innocent or not, there's a lot of conflicting info out there, but I...

Thanks so much puck. Hope to see you around one day hopefully!

Hey Blokes, I've read back through several pages of this thread and, though I understand very little of your jargon, I can see that the ACISS trade is experiencing a bit of turbulence in general as things are rapidly changing regarding the role of skilled ACISS operators. Though I have a very...

Hello, I am currently in the application process and my CFAT is next week. Just wondering if anyone here knows what decision process looks like regarding the "Security Clearance Pre-Assessment". I've done some minor traveling which I don't expect to be an issue but what I am concerned about it...
