    Drug Testing during Reserve interview for a co-op

    Yeah, if it's brought up, it should be in the interview, and you will be given a chance to have your say.

    Drug Testing during Reserve interview for a co-op

    It very well may. At least you owned up to it. If they say no, keep your nose clean and come back in the time frame given to you.

    Walts, posers & wannabes (merged)

    My brother ran into one of these morons on a construction site in Calgary. The first time he told it, he had recieved several medals for his combat service in Afghanistan. Later that day he was telling it to a different group in the coffee room, and someone called him out. First it turned into...

    JOINING RESERVERS-NEED SOME INFO!

    Dude, figure out what unit(s) you might want to join, and call them up. They will have a recruiter who will be happy to pump you full of info. Even just say, I don't know sh*t and want to know what being in the reserves is like if you need to. Not that I think jumping down peoples throats is...

    Reserve initial kit issue ( merged )

    Can anyone mention when you are issued kit (other than 'when you need it') in the reserves. I swear in this coming wednesday, and was wondering what I could expect right away (given that it's in stock), and what I will have to wait until BMQ to get. It really doesn't matter, but I'm excited as...

    Waiting for Ottawa

    The reserves isn't any different. I completed my CFAT, med, interview, and physical in June. They still haven't even gotten around to sending my file to my future unit.

    Election 2009?

    Like most Canadians, I did not want an election. However, now that the liberals have said it's on, I think we have to have one. The liberals can't just go back to supporting the government. Taliban Jack can try it, but he will probably just piss his base off even more. So we end up with a frozen...

    Tac Vest does not make the grade.

    Just curious, are they looking to replace the tac vest completely (eventually)? Or are they simply looking for a modular system for the TF's in the sandbox? I've heard guys say that the tac vest is fine for domestic stuff, but not operations. But shouldn't you train with the gear you will...

    Does being part of military make you 'right wing'?

    I know some people in the military, and combat arms, who you would call 'left wing'. However, I don't know anyone who participated in anti-war protests. That is no reason that you shouldn't be allowed in the CF. But I would think long and hard about what the right choice for you is. You don't...

    Reservists in AFG (merged)

    That doesn't seem to be the case. The door was left open, given that the 'end date' only stated that the troops would leave Kandahar province by 2011. Since then the conservatives have said that the bulk of troops will leave the country, not just the AO, and a small contingent will stay in some...

    More Important: Sparkly Glove or Canada's Fallen?

    Yes, they are bang on. I was pretty shocked when I turned on the news hoping to get a little more info on the downed griffin. Every two minutes it was, "now more on our top story of singer Michael Jackson" and not a word about the troops. I never expected much out of an outfit like the CBC...

    All day testing?

    Hey, just curious if someone has been through this. I am going for my Cfat, medical, and interview next week. I have to do it all in one day, and I have to go out of town. The Cfat will be first, med second, and interview last. So should I just wear my tie and dress shirt to the Cfat and wear...

    Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

    SUCCESS!! I recieved a call today, and I am booked to do the app test, med, and I may get to do the interview. Unfortunately I was at work when they called and they booked up before I could return the call, so I can't do the physical in the same day. Man it was just good to hear something, so I...
