Proximity a port is doing nothing for any of the Div HQs, but the remainder of your list is good. Also, using the location of an existing Div HQ will reduce cost moves associated with the transition.
Also "We can't process this claim/file as I can't leave X field blank and it won't let me move forward till I get that information" To many processes both government and business are built around the computer programs they use and their weaknesses.
There is no sustainment div, you are getting your terminology confused, you are likely thinking of the support division, which will split between support group west, central and east, and comprise of all the bases. Likely many positions will remain unchanged at the ground level as this is an HQ reorg mostly
The "debate" you're having rn might honestly be the most boomer thing Ive seen here lmao. "Back in my day we didnt need heat"
That wouldn't be nearly as funny if it wasn't true though. I still remember having to roll up on a steel bunk in Meaford, using my two issued grey blankets (stinking of moth balls), in the sole remaining unheated half-an-H-block down around 7th Line in early March. That's when I had time off from charging banks of BB46 lead acid batteries for our C-42 sets during the night. Mind you we wore battle dress and sheep skins or great coats.
Im referring to the other person, not mark
Why not Toronto for those same reasons?
Edmonton for the Manoeuvre Div, possibly Ottawa for Support Div
So what? A division HQ is not a national capital, and 1857 is not 2025. You are discussing different things from different times subject to different factors.
Because 4 Div, the support Div will already be in Ontario. I’m guessing 2 Divs in Ontario and none in QC didn’t make sense given the infrastructure already exists in MTL.
