When the IPCC stops supporting measures that do nothing to address climate change in favour of global wealth distribution, I'll care what they have to say. The Doom and Gloom crowd consistently pushes worst case scenarios and scare mongers. In case you don't remember we're supposed to all be...

I would like to point out that BYOD is just the lastest exploitive tactic in big business' race to the bottom. In no way should we be switching to a model that would have our troops be put in a position of buying their own ~$1K device out of their own pocket just so that it can be taken over by...

If CST is still being trained in datacomms, it's an overlap, because datacomms is in the IST DP 1.1. This frustrates me because for the life of me I can't figure out why it's still an CST Job. From what I understand CST was supposed to be the portion of LCIS that was hard LCIS that required...

Heard a rumour certain people are spreading information up their CoC that installing, programming and maintaining routers and switches is a hard CST job, and not in the AOR of IST. This puzzles me since this material is covered in depth in the IST TPs. Is this person wrong? Is there overlap...

my reaction below, though more moronic things have been done in the past, so who knows. edit: more content rather than just a flip image post. I don't have control of this, however here are my thoughts on why this will not happen. 1. Devices don't cost us money, we get them for free with our...

perhaps something like this?

Where the hell is this kindergarten-esque thinking coming from? What level of isolation are these people in who think this is a good idea. I've met no one who thinks bling for passing a mandatory test is a good idea. We seriously need more incentive to pass a pt test other than, pass it or...

So if I'm comprehending the article's message... it's not his fault he ignored the sexual harasment policy, ignored his fellow cadet's wishes he withdraw, ignored the no males allowed in the female showers rule and got naked into her stall. It's the fault of leadership not telling him sexual...

I hope there is video of the event in question, so that the culprit(s), whoever they are, are quickly held accountable.

From what I understand, the man who yelled the offensive comment was not the one fired. I thought the one fired mainly said he thought it was funny. I get that people find this to be an attack on the reporter, but really it was a stupid stunt to take advantage of a live camera to annoy. An...

Not just gone, there should be before and after metrics for identifying positive change. Frequently bad ideas become organizational zombies that never die. IE, with MES if they had taken a baseline measure of skill sets, time to train functional det members from raw recruit, and time to respond...

I think that the problem is mainly optics. No matter how well the system works, there will always be someone who feels it has failed them. Sometimes it will be perception, sometimes it will be fact. We can strive to enforce the rules better and yes our leaders are capable of enforcing the...

Based what I read, I believe the recommendation is not to add another layer, but to take all the existing layers and put it in one silo that is accessable separate from the CoC.  The same sort of idea as SISIP, Medical, Dental, Supply etc. If you need the services of the dept on the individual...

I don't think the case is being made to add another layer, I think the case is being made to replace all the layers with a single entity. I don't think having a single entity precludes SHARP/HA training, infact it could be part of the yearly DAG process. Delivery of this trg would be within the...

Fixed, thanks for pointing out that unintended typo. Cupper, I think that I illustrated specific points that would address much of your previous post.

I think one main point of the report, is that we do not have an all encompassing process. What we have a patchwork of overlapping processes and documentation that are separately administered across multiple AORs with different levels of enforcement in different geographical locations. I agree...

My hope is that all sexual misconduct processes, documentation, education, investigation, and resolution falls into the new organization's AOR. My impression is that is exactly what some of the 10 recommendations call for.

I don't know what form the independent review organization will take, however, my read on it was that it would provide an anonymous way to report a problem. That its focus would be on investigation not enacting punishment. One reason, it is claimed, that harassment is not reported is the...

Link to the Report. http://www.forces.gc.ca/en/caf-community-support-services/external-review-sexual-mh-2015/summary.page You can get a link to the rest of the report, or a pdf of the entire thing, as well as the action plan and other documentation there. As for the content of the report...

I feel your post deserves a more detailed reply... Yes it was an organized event. The gathering was in the form of a town hall. I don't think that CWO West and CWO Marchand would appreciate your implications that they are spreading gossip or any others you might be making. It was...
