Hey everyone, I just received this email from Rogers Corporate Office (I'm an employee): In the wake of the devastating earthquake and tsunami which hit the northern part of Japan today, Rogers is launching a Text-to-Donate campaign. Beginning today, Rogers and Fido wireless customers can text...

From www.cnn.com Tokyo (CNN) -- The most powerful earthquake to hit Japan in at least 100 years unleashed walls of water Friday that swept across rice fields, engulfing towns, dragging houses onto highways and tossing cars and boats like toys. Local media reported at least 32 deaths, with...

Thanks MM, I figured that was the case.  So hopefully they don't spend too much time scrutinizung, haha. So would they give me a call from my local RC or should I just bite the bullet and call next week?

Congratulations!!! Hopefully it's your number one choice! Again, congrats.

Looking for an opinion here. I'm not wanting to bug my local RC, so since my medical (and aircrew medical) are in Ottawa, what would be an appropriate time frame to call to check it's status. It's been there about a week now b

Welcome to the forums. Depending on what province you are in, there are options through most community colleges for online schooling and I'm pretty sure that 10 or 11 math is part of it. Through nbcc I was able to get the online course material for free but to actually do the full course with...

First off, why do you 'Have to'? Infantry is a full trade at the moment that is over capacity. Not trying to burst your bubble, but as we withdrawal out of the sandbox, unless we do the rumored Congo or anything, Infanty will probably be asked to do transfers from what I've read on the boards...

So. My medical is in Ottawa awaiting review. This is the most tumultuous portion of my application as you have probably read before. What's the worst that could happen? Right? I'm hoping that it goes fine. I passed in all the necessary paperwork, my doc doesn't think I'm crazy, my vision and...

Had to laugh at that. Correct term is Stigma, for $300 Alex.

I'll answer your questions in order: 1. Explain why to the recruiter. Yea, its plays bearing on who you are, but most people have shotty work histories at the beginning. IE: I went through 10 jobs in 3 years before being at my current civvy job for 5 years. Look at it from that perspective. 2...

It can go either way, America is a continent, not a country. I'm just going to assume a "well the United States has black people in power including a black president" post is going to come up at some point here. In Milwaukee, black people aren't known to vote. They see a black candidate they...

You have to look at it from a census point of view. Vancouver has a Chinese Chief of Police, Toronto a black one, rest of Canada, not so much. Well, Canada is a pretty diverse country, but censuses show that in smaller provinces, there are not the largest concentrations of different ethnicities...

Thanks willellis. I won't exactly be making plans, but I will for sure see what happens.

Hey there, inspiring post! I'm a 26 yr old male, decently fit, can do 30 push ups, more than that in situps and maybe 3 chin ups. Keep your chin up, you'll be fine. ;)

What jwtg said. As long as you don't have offensive or racially charged tattoos visible and you are willing to remove any visible piercings while in uniform, there shouldn't be a problem. Depending on the letters on your knuckles, as long as they don't say something like F your Mom or F the...

This should be in the Medical Section, however, bring it up to the Med Tech. If you are unhindered by it, you don't have any ill-effects or require medication you should be fine. We won't be able to give you a "yes it will be bad, or no, you'll be fine", but thats what the Medical is for. As...

That pretty much answered my question there. Closest airfield to me is (I believe) CFB Shearwater as I'm in SE New Brunswick. Thats not bad. That would lead to another question that I have not yet found. Is PAT Platoon like M-F 9-5? I'm asking that since I could possibly drive home on the...

Sorry guys, I was informed by someone it was in Kingston, I wasn't fully aware of what that process was and I was informed by a recruiter that after BMQ a lot of people have been seeing 3-9 months in PAT Platoon. Forgive my ignorance, Gentleman.

Hey all, Don't shoot me with 'use search', i did, found 36 pages the were loosely related to what I was looking for, found a few of the answers, but I still have a couple questions. - If on PAT for longer than 3-6 month, can my family come up? (If PAT is in Kingston, my primary choice's MOC...

And to add to my progression, to what I somewhat touched base on the last post: My local Med Tech was away at training so she has yet to receive my file in her hands. She travels between Moncton and Bathurst (3hour drive) week to week, so if she does not receive it in Bathurst and she comes to...
