    Sexual Assault & Sexual Misconduct in the CF

    The main problem with having two parallel procedures occuring at the same time is the possibility for one process to be prejudicial to the other. For example the accused would have Charter protections on the criminal side, but not on the Administrative side. There would need to be pretty...

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure - CAMO Discussion

    To be fair, there is also the Rockey Mountain Rangers. There was also previously the Royal Irish Rangers (now part of the Royal Irish Regiment) in the British Army. Edited to add: there is also the 50th Field Artillery Regiment (The Prince of Wales Rangers), Royal Canadian Artillery on the...

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure - CAMO Discussion

    Yeah, but we are looking at some pretty big geographic distances to travel to use them for some units.

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    I'm not saying that we should get rid of the Cadet Program, but I am saying that it should be re-amped to have more applicability to the CAF or at least more exposure to it. At present there are no qualifications that carry over that the average cadet will have. It causes me to ask questions if...

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    Yeah, but 2.8% fall way short of what some people would have you believe. Those numbers are kind of disappointing considering how much is put into the Cadet program. The other number I would like to know is how many of those former Cadets join the CIC as opposed to other areas. The CIC are...

    Has the Carney Liberals broken a vow with Veterans and First Right of Refusal by the Commissionaires?

    Security is one of those industries where you can get people who are very good at their job, and then get people who are completely useless at their job.

    Army Reserve Restructuring

    I saw this. I have a few questions about how they are measuring these things. So based on these numbers as I understand them, 2.8% of Cadets end up joining the CAF.

    Has the Carney Liberals broken a vow with Veterans and First Right of Refusal by the Commissionaires?

    You're really not going to get any better quality going with another company. The reality is that the overall quality will probably be worse. While they have been hiring civilians for 25 years now, they are still selective to a degree. There are still enough veterans in the organization to keep...

    2026 New Governor General (split from Liberal gov't thread)

    Regardless of how it's worded, this properly should have disqualified her from the office. It also sounds like she has never spent any time around the military if that is what she thinks of the CAF.

    And to add confusion to it, some of those companies will employ EMRs and even Standard First Aiders in some cases.

    Uncle Rick. But apparently it is a woman again. I'm hoping it's at least someone we have heard of.

    They can still work privately, they just can't call themselves paramedics. There are companies who employee them along with EMRs.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Well, the unfortunate thing is that if enough people (regardless of their citizenship status) join the military with those attitudes, at least some of them are going to finish training and be posted to an actual unit. The really scary part of this is that they are talking about officers, on the...
