    Transgender in the CF (merged)

    According to the CBC report, the doctor (who is also transgender) stated that she had finished her transition and was only on hormones. So, my question is, how long ago was she considered as "complete" with her transition?  More than 6 month?  That seems to be the standard wrt medical issues. ...

    Security concern with social media and military personnel

    Putting on my PAO hat here... If you want to do the same thing while you're on BMQ, I say have at 'er!  Now, don't go publishing while you're ON BMQ.  Aside from drawing any unwanted attention to yourself, you will also get the benefit of hindsight when you're done and can edit your pieces...

    New IRP / Move policy-effective Dec 01, 2017 [Merged]

    The realtor fees will likely be managed by your lawyer using the funds from the sale of the house if it''s handled in any way like on civvie side.  Given that this fee is supposed to be covered by the system, I can only assume that you would be reimbursed at the end of the claim.

    New IRP / Move policy-effective Dec 01, 2017 [Merged]

    So, the blank cheque is for them to make the deposit from whatever profits are made on your home (on the sell side).  What they will do is take whatever profits are made from the sale of your house to pay the realtor, yourself, and anyone on the other end, like the other lawyer at your...

    Ref who pays the lawyers, just doing my paperwork now for a sale outside of the system. I gave a blank cheque to the lawyers handling the sale and am filling out a "Direction to Pay" form, which authorizes them to pay the realtor commissions the closing of the mortgage and their own fees (about...

    Ontario Politics in 2018

    I'm curious to see who he's going to hire to run his campaign.  I know the guy who ran Rob Ford's campaign has had some personal issue in the recent past but has worked hard to overcome them.  The same guy ran Christie Clark's campaign out west and John Tory's back in Toronto too.  His team is...

    Wouldn't the lawyers handle that through the bank?  Especially since they are usually the ones to hold on to the deposit as well?

    Chiropractic, Massage and Osteopathy

    Wow.  Where to start. Yes, chiropractic, massage, osteopathy and acupuncture are all considered pseudo-science.  Yes, studies have been done on the efficacy of acupuncture and shown no noticeable benefit in the long term.  Yes, there are some chiropractors out there who genuinely believe that a...

    I may be wrong, but it might be best to use the personalized envelope instead of waiting for the cash at the end because anything claimed on the move is not taxed.  But any cash you receive at the end is taxed.  So the result is, if you just wait for the cash at the end, you're going to get...

    Jeans & mass punishment? #2

    Maybe they should use the system the way it's meant to be used, and realize that not everything in life is going to result in the immediate gratification that they've been raised with. That's part of the issue and a reflection of the immaturity and inexperience.  Yes, the system works slowly. ...

    You have to take into consideration that the college has been in flux for the past several years, trying to find its place again.  The position of DCdts has changed 4 or more times in as many years and with it so have some of the standards wrt the college requirements - pillar system or just...

    Jeans & mass punishment? #2

    Actually, it was the DCdts himself that caught cadets leaving the grounds wearing jeans being the last straw, after several warnings and reports of cadets being in town in such since the new dress regs came down in September.

    Jeans & mass punishment? #2

    Was at the gym this afternoon and talking to a 4th year I see there often at the same time.  Ref whoever leaked to the media, she felt it made the whole college look like a bunch of whiny kids, when in fact it is a very small number of people complaining and most understand the reasons behind...

    I'm late to the party I see. Yes...the infamous food fight.  Surprised that hasn't come up until now.  And a great example of how the group "punishment" worked. Honestly, in all of this we have to remember that the issue isn't as simple as being able to wear jeans.  It's people openly flouting...
