During an A-EMCA exam (paramedic licensing exam) review course I was sitting in at yesterday, the instructor showed a statistic that says by 2013, diabetes will surpass AIDS as the biggest epidemic in North America. I am unable to find/remember the exact source now, but a simple google search...

There is no media conspiracy to "sensationalize" when an officer / firefighter / or medic messes up on the job.  It's just the plain fact that someone doing the job they are supposed to do isn't news, when they do something outside of their normal job description is. The unfortunate thing is...

Scared? Maybe...  But most likely I wouldn't be able to address him without a $hit eating grin ;D

See responses #1, 3, 6, etc in this topic alone.  Several others on the forum say the same.

That's all fun and games until the individual is promoted to Mcpl Fuckyoumastercorporal. 

Read around some of the other topics, some people's process may be shorter than six months or considerably longer.  There are examples of both extremes in this very section of the forum.

As said a simple call to the bank would have straightened that out.  My girlfriend works for a bank and she reverses charges for people all the time, even when they don't deserve it (as in it was their own fault they were charged in the first place).  Not saying RBC would reverse the charges...

Best advice I got back when I was going through the process that I can pass to you is to try anything and everything you can to set yourself apart from other candidates.  The process can be very competitive in terms of number of applicants vs. number of open spots so anything you can add to that...

Fair enough, but bottom line is it still won't get you a job offer any faster until you complete the process, which includes doing all your testing and interview, as well as trade availabilities.  Good luck with your process. 

Did you also quit school?

What's your point? You will still need to come in person at some point regardless of sending in your documents and application electronically.

Also, at some point you will still have to go into a RC to sign the paperwork, as well as to do the testing and interview.

Just a caution to those who watch "reality" television... Although presented as such, often times it is far from reality.  Just throwing my  :2c: out there...

It is still a serious commitment that you should not take so lightly.  Referring to "it" as "only" a reserve commitment shows you may not be fully aware of what your applying for. Obviously not.  These are not "symbolic" words or gestures.  The Head of the government is the Queen.  That old...

Last I heard, and I'm not a recruiter, but imagery technician is no longer a direct entry trade, meaning you have to be in the CF already then switch trades to imagery tech.  Best to check with your local CFRC.

It's that ol' saying: the military has two sizes, too big and too small.  ;D

::) Canada is a Constitutional Monarchy.  You also must swear allegiance to the crown when you join.  And most, if not all units, carry on traditions that trace back to serivce of the crown.  There seems to be a lot of this feeling on the threads today.

Better late than never.  Good to see (baby?)  steps in the right direction. 

In Ontario, within 10 years of graduation, the high school guidance office can issue your official transcript, complete with notary, sealed in an envelope.  There is a fee of $10 per each transcript.  And you do not need to bring in the diploma itself as it says directly on the official...
