Same can be said about certain members here.

Here's my question as a former member of the Forces. Would a serving member be in violation of 19.10 if they signed a petition as an individual about "about alterations in existing regulations for the Canadian Forces"? 19.10 seems to state "No officer or non-commissioned member shall without...

The difference in this case is it wasn't the media who brought up the fact he was in the reserves but him who brought it up, which my guess is only as an attempt to minimize the blame for the incident created. Floating down river at night on an ice flow while making a self promoting YouTube...

SIR? Does that mean Special Incident Report?

Agreed he should have called but his biggest mistake was bring up he was a reservist doing personal training. Looks to me like he used this in a way to minimize his responsibilities. As a reservist on his personal time he was not subject to the Code of Service Discipline but he may of opened...

Actually the problem was Curt's action. By the way the person who reported it did stick around after reporting it to the police. They identified themselves to police but stated they lost sight of Curt and his waving red light in the darkness as he drifted down stream at night. Don't blame the...

No but an equivalent.

So am I especially if the question comes through a Ministerial Inquiry.

My thought exactly.

After causing a multi-agency search which included alerting Trenton, local police & fire and also US police and fire and a USCG helicopter it is now coming out as a member of our reserves from HMCS Prevost Naval Reserve in London. ::) Report of a person on an ice flow came from a bystander who...

RIP Buzz. Very good man which I served with in both 1 & 4 RCR.

I'm I the only one who sees something wrong here or am I that outdated? Paper work almost done in March but not stating parading until Sept. Seems like a overly long time. The Forces risk losing many recruits due to this long delay. BMQ not until next year? No weekend courses or at least this...

In the civilian system even at the JP level you have the option of having a lawyer represent you (on your own dime) but do you have this same option at a military summary trial?

Even with your example of a soldier requiring a cast hospitalization wouldn't be required. The whole pack up your gear system was a way to discourage those from reporting on sick parade. Hopes were that only those really requiring treatment would go on sick parade. The down side was those who...

I admit my remembrance of the incident may not be 100% as time has passed but the basic facts I stated were 100% correct. As I knew & worked with the accused and was part of the police line-up I more than just heard of the incident.

Speaking in an Ontario context how many traffic offenses (HTA) will occur jail time? Yes some traffic offenses can be tried under the C.C.C. but HTA offenses don't bring those sentences.

In in many cases they were correct and just didn't give a hoot who they p*ssed off, the reason they remained corporals for life. Being correct but bucking the preferred path of the COC doesn't jump someone up the list for career courses or promotion.

Around 1980. Yes dated but the system has not been completely revamped. And in no way is this a tall tale. If anyone who has spent more than a few years in our military believes things like this have not happened and have the possibility to happen again then they must be looking through foggy...

It may not have been a summary trial but it was conducted by the military in London without legal representation. In the civilian system this would have never occurred & the individual would have been appointed legal representation.
