[case.a]

Hello,
Im headed out of Petawawa on the 17th to my BMQ in St. Jean.  I will be taking the Greyhound Bus into Montreal and then taking a cab the rest of the way.  I was wondering if anyone will be taking the bus the same day, and if that was the case, if anyone would like to share a cab to cut on costs.  From what i understand its about $90.  If anyone is interesting PM me or post here.  As well, anyone headed to the BMQ on the 18th, feel free to add me to MSN, [email protected].

[omgLiam]

From what I was told at CFRC St. John's today during my swearing in, there'd be a bus coming for us at 3 EST. I know three of us are coming from Newfoundland that afternoon.

 

[case.a]

Yeah I know I was told that as well.  But where I am from, I have to get the Greyhound one of two times during the day, the first makes me arrive at 9:30am, and the other makes me arrive past 6:00pm.  I dont particularly want to wait around for several hours as I will have little money as it is. 

 

[omgLiam]

Oh okay, cool, just figured I'd inform you that a few of us would be arriving around then if you were okay with waiting.

 

[case.a]

Well that depends, if I knew someone was gonna be there aroudn the same time as me, I would wait.  Im a talkative person, I can't be by myself.

Hey just a quick question, how long did you guys have to wait to get the call to be sworn in and get the date you start your BMQ??

Hey just a quick question, how long did you guys have to wait to get the call to be sworn in and get the date you start your BMQ??

Ok.....thats a popular question. It can be fixed by a search but i guarantee that you wont find the answer that applies to YOU as each applicant has a different process due to their background, trade choice and applicable entry plan.

 

[case.a]

I only had to wait a week after being merit listed to get called to be sworn in 4 days later and then basic ont he 18th.  but overall i had to wait 2 months.

 

[DS4000]

Two months since you finshed your med/interview and CFAT?

 

[omgLiam]

I handed in my full application Jan 5th or so, did my CFAT/Interview/Medical a week later, and got offered a job at the beginning of February. I'm going to BMQ on the 17th.

So all in all, 6 weeks for me.
