    Is this legal?

    Wait. Are you two suggesting that ignorance of the law is not a defence?

    Is this legal?

    You have no idea how aggravating it is to be a presiding officer and ask the accused if he or she knew, at the time of the commission, that his or her actions were an offence under [the relevant section] and receive a response of, "No."  And *poof* everything disappears. Do judges have this...

    Fitness for Operational Requirements of CAF Employment ( FORCE )

    I think they're already blended. MPFS represents the minimum physical fitness standard to achieve universality of service.  This to me amounts to no big deal. In a physically-based job, performance manifests physically.  If a troop's physical conditioning prevents him from performing at his...

    China's "professional trolls"...coming to an online forum near you

    I think you might be right. Rugby employs perhaps the largest of teams, and all its players work very hard together to achieve success for the team.  It epitomizes the expression the team is greater than the sum of its parts.  Without the teamwork, rugby is little more than a melee - a group of...

    Fitness for Operational Requirements of CAF Employment ( FORCE )

    I have been told the rates of failure for the FORCE evaluation are significantly similar to those of the EXPRES test. I wonder, though, if the demographics are the same

    What does a 2IC REALLY do?

    Have you checked the OS?  That should have a list of tasks.

    Is this legal?

    Is any of this improper conduct that is directed at and offensive to a member of the CF or civilian employee, in the workplace, that the poster reasonably ought to have known would cause offence? Is any of this insulting language to a superior? Do any of these comments, if seen or heard by any...

    When is Annual leave required for Military events?

    I'm afraid I agree with his sentiment.  CF members are entitled to considerable periods of paid time off (over a month per year is annual leave).  It isn't until 27 years of service that a civilian employee gets as much leave as a member of the CF - and that's not including short and...

    Tablets

    Perhaps I'm out to lunch, but why wouldn't the range pubs be up to date and reviewed prior to the range beginning?  They're all available on the DWAN at publications.  Yes, updating electronic copy is faster and ostensibly more convenient, but if RSOs and OIC Ranges aren't exercising due...

    Cost/value of Canadian Forces helmets, tac vest and armour?

    When I had to get my armour and tac vest replaced a few years ago, it was $600 +/- per item.  Thankfully, my plates weren't involved.

    The Econo Lodge Rocks......

    I stopped at a hotel in Edmonston in a February.  Left all my stuff in my duffle bag in the room and went out for supper.  Came back, the pipes had burst in the room above mine, completely soaking all my stuff.  Wouldn't give me a new room and wouldn't refund me my purchase because the bed was...
