Yep. I worked there at Carling just before the final curtain. I was with the IT security group at the time. We told our bosses it was a bad idea having tons of Chinese students working there, and all of the Chinese "delegations" touring, but the Chinese were throwing $ around like they were...

So non-Duty travel is still a thing. The site I listed above has all the details. I used it a couple of times but be aware, depending on that is going on, you may have to pay for a commercial flight if you get bumped at the last minute. DAOD 2016-0 lays out who can travel and who must...

Hey, I'll try to answer your questions to the best of my ability and I welcome anyone with more knowledge than me to correct. If we're talking about Officers (or any Reservist in fact) on Class A service then the answers are: 1. No Medical benefits while not on duty. So if you fall of the...

I would suggest that your first action should be to contact your Unit and ask about possible upcoming courses. That being said, the summer is winding down now so it is unlikely you will be offered a course soon. I'm assuming your a reservist, so your Unit should be in touch soon with a date to...

We don't number Units in Canada the same as in other countries. So there isn't a 32nd Brigade, there is however a 32 CBG (Thirty Two Canadian Brigade Group) as listed in one of the links above. Your best course of action is to select three trades that interest you in order of priority, see if...

Well obviously if you have your toque on, you also have gloves on to pick up the badger.

No eyepro?!?!? :eek: I hope you at least have gloves on.....

The three links below lay out the regulations around Cadet Organizations Administration and Training Service (COATS) (No longer CIC) enrolment. There is still a requirement to meet, but it is much lower. As I'm not a Dr., nor do I play one on the Internet :sneaky:, You best bet is to read the...

Not great where I'm at. Lots of pers, both uniformed and not, who are on various accommodations. Many work less than 3 days a week if that. OT "Work from Home" yet never answer Teams or respond to emails for days. I am seeing another trend as well. More and more "Uniformed" jobs are being...

While I like your idea, I see some pitfalls: 1. What is the criteria for being allowed to rent one? ie. So many days attendance a month? Valid Force test? Green on ARV? etc...? You can't just allow reservists to rent them as you'll get people joining to get a place and never showing up (or...

I can assure you that in 5XX at least, there has not been any reconstitution activities taking place (or not taking place as it were). As a matter of fact, our tempo has actually increased. Sure we cancelled a few gun salutes, but overall, there is still way more work than people to do it...

From what I see, it's not the middle-of-the-road types that care. It's the attention whores and holier than thou types that just seem to like to rile things up just because. The first group don't bother me (I will admit I used to be bothered, but life's too short to get riled up about others...

Each of the Divs was directed to produce an alcohol policy. AFAIK each Div may be different.

Ack all, but do you honestly think all 3000 will go towards new platforms? We'll still be losing people that need to be backfilled. Where I work, we don't care about retention yet. It's all about recruiting. The questions I get today is how is recruiting going, not how are we retaining pers...

Maybe he was prepared for an eclipse?

Can I have an autograph?

Ha, tell that to the QM pers that pick up lunch and supper box lunches at breakfast for the drive home from Gagetown after a CT Ex. (As one of many examples). I know your correct in the 4 hour thing, but I rarely ever saw it happen.

Rifles Units, Various fancy hats across the country, Bands to add a few more.

So, in your opinion, would that be worse than kidnapping people and raping and killing them in cold blood? Not saying I condone what was done to that house, but if you fly the symbols of an organization that has a large contingent that does bad things to people, you have to somewhat expect...
