Bruce et al, I can only hope that this new interest recognizing in the stress suffered by our polizei spills over into the world of corrections. I cannot speak for any province other than Ontario, but more help was offered on decompression leave in Cyprus than to any CO in Ontario that I am...

Great attitude, mayhap that perception of yours is being shared by the staff talking to you. I cannot count the number of applicants who appear to heed: A) only the answer that they like               B) only the answer that this guy at work's best friend was told by some guy who said he knew...

Very true! (especially the bit about blaming PET a lot >:D )

To see the light, go talk to your CFRC staff....we don't bite (often) and we ( usually ) do have the answers your looking for, if the not the answers you want... And sometimes that is the issue, no matter how many times you repeat yourself , some folk just do not wanna listen, or prefer to...

The SIP does not indicate that the CF will be taking in large number of infantry types. The SIP for infantry is very limited and is aimed at accepting component transfers and those applicants already in the system. The total number is ABOUT 300 total ( each regular force regiment being given...

And sometimes the 'convincing' directs the applicant in a wholly unforseen direction! >:D

As Pusser states there may be local policies / directives. For example, at the present time the Comd of 31 Bde has directed that no 31 Bde pers will attend pubs etc in uniform. As this does not apply to Reg and Nav Res pers in the area, they do go for a wee dram in uniform and, in the main...

Ahhhhhhh,  NOW i know what the Technoviking was so secretive about on his day off in Dubai..... ;D ((edited as a result of my piss poor spelling))

Ahhh yes, noted Must be my Mess Tin syndrome! :-X

Friendly hint, your user name indicates that you are an officer in the CF. Some folks might take offence to that. I am not calling you a walt, you are probably just very keen on gaining a commission..... My  :2c: Cheers SB

Folks. if you wish to know what trades will be open in the next fiscal year, contact your friendly neighbourhood CFRC.  While we do not have the sip ( actual numbers of positions avail) we do have the list of open and closed trades... Although, as DA Patterson kindly pointed out, the review...

Go down to your CFRC and talk to a recruiter about your options re: NCM or ROTP...... they hwill guide you through it. No problem in wanting your education paid for, just make sure you have the stones to fulfill the required period of service afterwords. 

Just as an aside..... I followed the link to the Legion of Frontiersmen Central Deathstar command page.... Under affiliated units they have a link to the PPCLI..... Clicked on that an it brought me to the PPCLI page here on Army.ca Do we have a mole, or is the Techoviking REALLY  His uberness...

To be accepted as a officer in the CF you MUST meet the min standard for Officer on the CFAT. Study your math, realize that 90% of problem solving is not the math, but the UNDERSTANDING of what you are being asked to do. Available INT O spots are few ( and fewer in the upcoming fiscal...

Intake of reserve applicants ( except for Naval Reserve, and in rare cases Comms posn) is on hold tuntil at least 01 April 2010. This means that under current guidelines we will not be able to process your application until then ( Unless you go Nav Res) Things MAY change in the next while re...

An appropriate comment given some of the thoughts expressed in this thread. This surely isn't the first time cuts or "adjustments" have greatly impacted the Pres. The first time I went through this though, we had "pink" pay sheets.... Unit's kept their integrity by continuing to parade, train...

Mine too. Watch and shoot.

The policy is nation wide.  Current CF Recruiting Group directives state that no processing of any file is to be done unless teh applicant is going ROTP / RETP. This means that while those who are merit listed and good to go with open slots to drop into may still be enrolled; no one who isn't...

I wondered who had been drinking from my aluminium pot......

Failing BMQ does NOT make you ex-military! Not trying to be rude, rather trying nip potential walting in the bud. Cheers SB
