SUNDAY, DECEMBER 14, 2008 Spare a thought for our Armed Forces By Elizabeth James, North Shore News "I hope Canadians will remember these soldiers as men. That's how I think of them; the numbers mean nothing to me. I knew each of them as fine individuals, and that's how I will remember them."...

It's not a change at all.  You will find the same entry in QR and O Army Cadets 1956. 

QR and O (Cadets) Para 4.02 When a person becomes a cadet he or she shall make the following promise: "I (name in full) hereby afirm my loyalty to her Majesty the Queen, her heirs and successors" The promise prescribed in this article shall be administered by a cadet instructor or any other...

Naval Procurement/Shipbuilding in Canada - A flawed process A paper by the Navy League of Canada http://www.cda-cdai.ca/Currie_Papers/Currie%20Paper%201-08%20Navy%20League.pdf

This is not an issue in most provinces.  The program must follow the regulations as they apply in the various jurisdictions.    The national policy is outlined in CATO 13-22 http://www.cadets.ca/_docs/cato-oaic/1322_b.pdf Here is how it applies in B.C...
