Jonsey:
Get on that right away and get your application in to CFRC Hamilton ASAP. The whole process can take a 3-4 months, so you need to do it ASAP if you want summer courses.
And, the sooner we swear you into the unit, the sooner we can give you pre-course training -- that way you are all set for your course.
For the reference letters -- all you need to do is get two people who have known you for a combined 5 years. Try a teacher, a former/current employer, etc.
