OPP is under the Community Safety and Corrections Ministry. Their Commissioner Chris Lewis made $215,000 in 2013.

The major problem with the "sunshine list" in Ontario is it doesn't breakdown the money. So you can't tell who from the Ministry of Health got a bonus of $, or in the Legislature who got $ for only 8 months work, or which OPP member worked a bunch of OT in an isolated spot waiting for a position...

I don't know members that want to strike or wear Cami pants or withdraw services. I do know members who are frustrated with a Staff Relations system that seems ineffective in representing the membership. Members are tired of seeing the pay fall further and further behind other police services...

The advantages to having the RCMP continue with anti-terrorism are numerous but among them I would think the following are the most important. This country is huge! How many other organizations could have assets, offices, infrastructure in most of the major, medium, small and isolated locations...

Don't forget to consult CRA on what expenses that you incur in the move that can be claimed on your income tax. It's not a lot. But it is something.

X Royal, I don't think comparing the CF Judicial system and the civilian can ever be compared fairly to each other. But there are many similarities. As SL stated many people come to court unrepresented. And often unprepared for what is to occur. This can occur on Provincial Offences and even...

I am guessing, but expect that it was felt that the embarrassment to the subject ( just can't squeak out gentleman) and his family (including one associated to the CF) was probably felt to be enough. I went through this first hand a few years ago where another subject (in his 60s) was...

I don't believe that he is a reservist at this time. I believe he was in the past. The photo on the Internet as well as another (unedited) that I saw from a member on this site shows him in blue blazer, legion crest and medals, jump wings (red leaf), maroon beret, PPCLI cap badge and a U.S. CIB...

Yes summary conviction (only) offences have a limitation of action of 6 months from the offence date. This is most often evident in that Provincial Offences usually must be laid (either ticket issued or long form information sworn) in that 6 months. There are some exceptions. BC used to have...

I think that in 1925 forming the Commissionaires as a way to provide permanent or temporary employment for veterans was quite a forward looking idea. In the days before many other social safety nets, some people felt it important to give veterans some opportunities.  I agree. Today we are...

Last I heard the RCMP still does. Also credits up to five years towards promotion after 2 years RCMP service. Case by case basis.  Unless I missed an email in the last few months.

Sorry I don't remember him specifically

Some benefits that would also certainly follow if small units of RCMP were on attachment with the CAF ( at larger bases and the NIS) above the odd one that happens now. Closer, more user friendly access to associated RCMP support sections. Often at a better cost ratio than what it would be for...

Now that's funny. No it wasn't. But by chance my NSE guy par takes in this site ( as I just found out yesterday). I don't remember any Smiths. You couldn't swing a stick without hitting a Caron though.

No Dand District Centre. All the NSE That I remember at CNS at the time were 5 Brigade types. Only Navy guy I really remember there was a computer guy. Again, another great guy although a Canucks fan.

Sorry I was remiss earlier. For the record there was also one great Navy NSE guy who made some hot miserable days bearable and even funny. I didn't need the GCS to feel like part of the team with guys like him around.

Thanks. Agreed. Many beautiful spots (northern lights on a cold winters night). But some wild policing.

**Sorry work call. I was fortunate to deploy as an RCMP member March to December 2009 in Kandahar. I spent the first three months working out of the PRT at CNS attached to Stabilization Company A (R22R). Generally this entailed long walks in the moon light around KC. I also pulled my turn on...

I wanted to say that I don't feel that the RCMP or other police services could ever replace MPs in 95% of the roles that MPs are tasked to do. For roles that are purely military in nature (detainee handling, convoy control, force protection) we don't get the training and wouldn't get the...
