    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    Halifax has (had?) a nice little hospital at stad that included after hours emergency service and an ambulance. Went there one evening on an emergency basis, was seen right away, treated and admitted for a week. Considering they told me if I had gone home and went to sleep I wouldn't have...

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    Taking care of family is important. A big issue for us is family health care. We went from having a family doctor for years to not having one and unable to find one. Almost 10 years and my wife just got a doctor last month, my son depends on the pediatrician and the rest are still using walk...

    Transfering to the Reg Force (CT) and Rant about reserve units

    Because he was a cbt arms sgt that ct'd, had all the requirements required to be appointed to MCpl and I needed a MCpl as an OR Supvr to ensure the OR staff were taken care of while getting the work done. I was also able to provide him with OJT and if there was any trade specific questions he...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023 Megathread

    When has that stopped them as that argument could be used in just about every conflict they decided to participate in over the years. Maybe it is in defence of the USA as the people in gaza keep calling for death to America. Works as good as the others. They would be going in to rebuild an...

    Transfering to the Reg Force (CT) and Rant about reserve units

    Nope, it depends - had a MCpl put in for CT and as he wasn't trade qualified the initial offer was Pte. I contacted the broker and arranged for the offer to be delayed 3 months as I had course loaded the MCpl so he could be then CT'd as a trained Cpl. By the time everything was done he was...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Would that be the same society that published this in support of covid vaccine - https://royalsociety.org/-/media/policy/projects/set-c/set-c-vaccine-deployment.pdf • The public needs to be empowered to spot and report misinformation, with more accountability for media companies to remove...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Totally destroying USAID may be extreme but it appears that it needed some audit and oversight of where the dollars were going. Hard to determine what is actually happening as one report will state it is rolled into another department and will continue to function with better oversight while...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    I do recall some piss ant article talking about this and how the people of earth had to do something about it. Their idea was to be able to fire some rockets (maybe nukes??) into the sun to boost or restart it (can't recall fully) when the time was right. For some reason it didn't catch on...

    CAF Procurement

    Sorry but it is nice to see others understand lowest cost per item is not always the best and that they are just as frustrated with the system. Last case I had dealings with was we had a local supplier that cost a little more per item than a long distance dealer (Ontario to New Brunswick)...

    How much should I carry?

    Perhaps things have changed otherwise no to the cold medicine. If you need meds you will see the medics/MO and have it provided.

    Reconstitution

    True but when the unit says everyday group PT will be 0800-0930 that is what you have to work with. Can't help some people that come up with what they think is a great plan without talking to those that have to deal with it in the end. Just with clerks alone (it was RMS Clks at the time) for...

    30 Days Annual

    yeah that was such a weird number that none of us could figure out. Guess next year I won't be the only one getting 30. the nice part is they finally fixed the reserve leave to match the regular force. Now our reserve staff will be getting 25 days instead of 24 (none have the 25 years yet).

    Reconstitution

    I agree fully but the problem I see all the time is that the units will build the PT into their work days and then complain that the office isn't open, their paperwork isn't done fast enough, they call and can never reach anyone, etc. Don't tell me I have to do PT from 0800h to 0930h then...

    Is Infantry a Waste of Time During Peacetime?

    In my not so humble opinion - yes. The world is very much in an upheaval and no one can truly predict what may happen at any point. It would be better to be in, trained and ready rather than wait for something to happen and join hoping for the action only to have it end before you are...

    Reconstitution

    Exactly. Trades were asked to provide input on what cats was needed for their people and this was taken into consideration so that they can do more trade centric med requirements. For a large part HRA/FSA does not need anywhere near infantry standards as the trades doesn't really do field...

    Depart with Dignity

    Hopefully some one can help. I am trying to request the environment certificate for one of my staff but everything I find for the army leads to cancelled canforgens. Anyone happen to have up to date information? thanks in advance.
