    "Canadian Armed Forces creates new officer occupation for Physician Assistants"

    Modlrmike have to disagree on one point.  The sooner the CAF can get direct entry PAs the better, CAF hasn't been able to meet the need for PAs for many years.  Mostly due to the age and time in most PAs have when they reach the course.  When I retire 2 years ago they lost 22 PAs that year due...

    "Canadian Armed Forces creates new officer occupation for Physician Assistants"

    My understanding is yes to most of what you ask Blackadder.  Those who didn't want to become PAs where stopped at Sgt, they now can progress.

    IPR service Couple

    My spouse retired at 20 years (5 years ago) and we used his IPR at that time.

    Military veteran charged following incident at Wainwright

    Yes R2MR is good training and as a Physician Assistant I agree that Mental Health First Aid should be taught too.  However getting anyone to attend these course will be very difficult.  Heck we can't get most folks to do annual IBTS training every year or First aid on a regular basis.  R2MR is...
