    Canadian military goes global with supply bases

    Well, if our acquisition of Turks and Caicos goes as planned. ;)

    What outcome would you like to see happen in the parliamentary crisis?

    Legal? Yes. Loophole in the system? Most definitely. Morally correct? Not by any measure. It doesn't matter if the majority of Canadians voted against Harper. Canadians did NOT go to the polls to vote in a coalition. So the 62 or 63% majority argument doesn't fly particularly well. Or at all.

    Canadian Forces Called Me

    Fastjack: The reason the recruiting office couldn't tell you why you didn't pass the 2 rounds of selections was because they don't know. CFRG Borden would be the ones who made the call on your application. There are normally 2 rounds of selections done, mid-January, and mid-March, where a board...

    ROTP 2009-2010 Dates

    Just go clear things up, the 2 and a half weeks you spend at RMC before the start of FYOP (and the school year) is NOT BMOQ. I have no idea where that came from. It's called recruit camp/recruit term. BMOQ is what IAP/BOTC is now known as. Now I can't give you the answer you want, but I can...

    Mandatory to live on campus in University?

    Not confusing, so much as lots of information getting tossed around. Yes, you can go to a CivvyU under the ROTP program, you apply to that university, and when you apply under ROTP, you put "CivvyU." If the recruiting centre comes back saying "Hey! You've been accepted for CivvyU," then you...

    Mandatory to live on campus in University?

    I agree with you, it is discrimination. However, I was told there was an incident last year involving someone who was common law. This person ended the relationship, and therefor his common law status, but wanted to remain living off. Ended up going out with another girl, and was in turn found...

    Mandatory to live on campus in University?

    Try explaining that to 2 of the common laws I have in my Sqn. They do not have the option as they have not been common law for 2 or more years. Maybe it was that way when you were at the college, but not anymore. Debatable. Bolded emphasis are my own. I would call that discouraged, but in...

    Mandatory to live on campus in University?

    You should know not to regurgitate information mindlessly, because that info might be wrong.

    Mandatory to live on campus in University?

    Living on campus is NOT mandatory for RMC ROTP or civvy U ROTP. RMC 4th years currently have the "option" of living off, however its being discouraged in the next few years. Married and SOME common law RMC cadets also have the "option" of living off. We'll see how it works with Champlain under...

    WTB - Surplus Barracks Box

    Good luck. I asked and just got pointed towards Pelican. I got a 1610 case, which is roughly the same size as the older pre-Pelican issued case. It was original 275$ from a retailer in Edmonton, less a 10% CF discount. So not too bad. WTB - Issued Army Barrack Box

    Reserve Entry Training Plan (RETP) [MERGED]

    Going to be honest, I wouldn't want to serve with you if you aren't capable of putting mission above all. Its the principle of it. If your head isn't in the right place, and you've shown its not, people could die. Simple really.

    You sure Marlow White still carries them? All I could find was mess dress.

    Naval High Collar White Tunic

    Is there a Canadian source for the high collar whites?

    Another CAN Journalist Nabbed, This Time in PAK

    I agree with you whole heartedly. But advocating murder as a means of resolving problems goes beyond rational expression of one's beliefs. Once that line is crossed, everything changes.

    Another CAN Journalist Nabbed, This Time in PAK

    Just the fact that she was hosting this video on her site sickens me. To me, its the advocation of the murder of American soldiers, and I can't in good faith state that I hope she returns safely.

    Beyond words. It would be amazing if a copy of the original photo was found.

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    I wore a black dress shirt with a black ziped pullover and a (modern) white tie with dress pants and shoes. I was in the middle of the range, as there were people there in suits, and one person saw fit to show up in jeans. Don't be the person in jeans.
