Yeah, I figured as much. But some insight is better than none at all. Unfortunately I don't know any MP's so I can't pick their brains, lol.
I found the recruiting video layed it out pretty good though for the wide range of opportunities available to those who excel and show potential. I am...
"Actually my fear is the various separatist parties unite, like Quebec, Alberta, BC, the Maritimes. There are people in each province who really do believe that their individual province could go it alone and successfully."
First of all, I hope you know that the "Maritimes" is not a province...
Much appreciated NinerSix!
I just got off the phone with the MPs and they told me that they don't take people off the street anymore and that it has to be done through schools. I told him I was enrolled in the Criminology program at Eastern College and he said that ride alongs are often part...
Hey everyone,
I have searched about this but have only found outdated posts. The site suggested I should start a new topic. Do the MP's still do ride alongs? Some friends of mine in the CF said they don't think they do them anymore. Instead of calling and bugging them, thought I would bug...
Hey Everyone,
Just decided to go back to school for Criminology and apply for MP when I complete this certificate in two years. My official end date is May 2013, which sort of worries me for recruiting numbers and meriting in April. I know, I know, the ridiculous things us wannabe recruits...
Hello,
I agree with dangles. Don't give up on it if that is your dream. You can either wait until the trade opens or join a trade you think you would enjoy and hope that you can OT one day, the military isn't going anywhere anytime soon. I was in your same position when I went to the...
I agree about Passchendaele..what a disappointment. I might be a woman but the whole love story thing was just lame. There are times when the connection to home and loved ones are important like in We Were Soldiers, but sometimes they just blatantly stick it in there to attract a wider audience...
Hey Everyone,
I used to work at a Sobeys that did Western Unions while I was getting my degree in Military History. There used to be a man who would come in to recieve money and would write that he was an "etailor". One day I finally asked him what it was and he said that he collects...
Hello all,
I have a question similar to that in this thread. I am currently in the process of applying with the RCMP as a Victim Services volunteer. The security clearance can take some time to come through. If I get merit listed before I get accepted to be a volunteer can I update my...
JMesh,
Thanks for the feedback. It isn't so much that I am set on Social Work, it just seems like it would be so interesting in the CF with it's specific issues. Unfortunately I went to University without any idea of what I wanted to be and just took courses that I was interested in. Don't...
Blackadder1916,
That information was really helpful, thanks. I already knew the entrance requirements for Social Workers in the CF, but was just curious why you had to have a Masters and why the CF wouldn't subsidize where Social Work degrees can be acquired in less time than a regular...
Hello Everyone,
Wow, this has been a long time coming. To say a little about myself; I graduated from University with a degree in Military History in 2009. My husband is armoured, and I have been wanting to join for a few years now and finally think things may be moving forward in April. I...
