Which social media page? I feel a bit out of the loop (feel free to PM if not for public consumption).

Well, obstensibly, isn't the CGG doubling in establishment as per the newest directives and thus more or less going to be doubling in size in response?

Knowing your Regiment's officers pretty we'll I think it might be useful for you to, you know, ask them? Your Senior Sub is approachable and has taught courses before, you have Captains who have taught many courses between them, and you have some recently commissioned Senior NCOs who can give...

I'm not sure 'creampied' is really the term you are looking for here. Just sayin'

Thank you, I had just come here to post something similar. It really isn't that likely that you've done that many BFTs, let alone had the opportunities to. I have approximately the same amount of time in (2 years) as multihobbist. While I'm sure our experiences in the Forces have varied I...

I volunteered in a number of countries throughout Central America and Africa and it didn't hamper my enrolment. In fact, as was previously stated, it was noted that my volunteer experiences abroad helped me in my application as an Officer. Good luck!

As a Junior Officer in an Infantry regiment, I rather prefer the strict dress code. Despite the fact that we don't allow jeans, khakis or whatever else, we still have no issues with Junior or Senior Officers coming up for drinks or socializing. This may be our specific unit or because we are...

Hopefully after you have fully recovered physically, you can start working on that whole "honesty" business.

Seen. I also just received my preliminary training dates for this summer. Not so good. BOTP2 - 7 June to 19 June. Valcartier. CAP - Directly after, starting on the second mod (whichever that is). Gagetown. I was told there was absolutely no way to finish CAP this summer, and would have to...

Ditto for 34 brigade.

As a previous Katimavik participant, I definitely think that more young people in Canada need to start engaging themselves, and being engaged, by domestic or international civil work. Katimavik taught me innumerable skills (how to speak French, leadership, tenacity, compromise, etc) and most...

So, by these dates (and thank you very much for them, by the way - it really illuminates things) is it even possible to be qualified CAP by the end of summer? And if so, will the training even make sense? It seems as though if you try to follow the sequence logically (1-5 or 5,1,2,3,4 as it is...

I was wondering if anyone had access to the updates and/or final CAP dates for this summer to fall. (IE. May - October start dates). I am currently away from the unit and our OPs WO is busy like crazy - emails have thus far not been replied to. As well, I was wondering what the order of the...

Not racist at all.

This is obviously satire. Whether or not you find it humourous, there is no reason to get all butthurt over it. The internet is serious business.

In regards to the missing of BMQ weekends... A member of my section missed a weekend about halfway through, and although he was brought up (mostly) to standard the next week he will not be graduating with the rest of us. Instead, he must wait until the next rotation to make up that weekend...

We meet at Montreal Garrison and then head to St. Hubert for the weekend. I know this stands true for all of the Anglo units (CGG, RMR, Black Watch, etc) and a lot of the Francophone units as well. Our platoon is made up of two Anglo sections and two Franco sections but we really don't interact...

I'm an OCDT as well, actually (the only one in the platoon :P) but our BMQ standards are still messed, I think. If your course is anything like ours, you should be issued a course calendar that explains the exact week-by-week schedule. If you wouldn't mind letting me know about the Field EX...

I'm currently on the 7th weekend of BMQ here in Quebec, and already there are some minor deviations (we didn't receive most kit until the 3rd week or so). We were told that our serial, 0901, was a "trial" serial and that a lot of new exams and plans were being tried out. Among them was the...
