Me and my wife have our own view of things based on the old definition of a veteran as someone that has served in the military. Veteran - someone that has served in the military and completed basic training War Veteran - someone that has served during a period of war regardless of where they...

This is just my personal opinion so take it with a grain of salt. As you have a Finance degree contact your recruiter and discuss with them about applying to enrol as a Fin O. Prepare yourself with written questions prior so you get answers you need. some would be compare FSA to Fin O...

Haven't they already been making that public over the last several years??? :unsure: While ensuring that you cannot publicly talk about it so those same people that are removed now come back next year when you get kicked out of the party. Until the list is made public these people can all...

I would like to say I am surprised but really I'm not. When it comes to disabilities the federal government really is out to lunch and requires people with permanent disabilities to prove it over and over again with documentation from a doctor. CRA is a perfect example - my disabled daughter...

I will agree he doesn't have the direct power but he does have the power to go through his minister in charge and request a waiver if actually needed to just provide a list of names. That is all everyone is asking for - list of names of those alleged to have. If the military can obtain...

I am so tired of the "he can't, doesn't have a security clearance" mantra. He is a career politician. So in all that time he never obtained a security clearance? Maybe but I suspect he does have one that just needs to be updated which reminds me that mine is due in 2025. Why does he need a...

As you are at a reserve unit the only one that can answer your questions is your chain of command. They all have different methods of deciding course loading. Unit A it may use attendance, unit B may use exercises only, unit C may use "Pte Bloggins does everything I tell him right away with...

No, it is something they sent me on the previous claims and I just received for this claim. Perhaps my wording threw you off. "arose out of your Regular Force service. Therefore, entitlement is granted, under Section 45 of the Veterans Well-being Act, Regular Force service.• Assessment is 3%...

I have actually had it at times show routes using paths instead of just the roads. Recently did that for directions to my place using cycling, went through the park next door. It is a hit or miss thing with them. Sometimes it even puts the arrival location in the middle of nowhere when looking...

Thanks, bookmarked the link this time so hopefully won't lose it. They sure don't make it easy to wade through it all, will be interesting to receive the letter so I can see how they determined everything and compare to what I come up with. May be some factors they don't have and need...

Think that is the same one I saw. They had cancer and connected it to their time in Afghanistan. Will be interesting as they specify in this case the connection is to the left testicle. National Post has an article Canadian soldier granted compensation for cancer after Veterans Affairs...

I now have another one of my claims actioned and will be getting $67.77 a month. Don't have the document yet so no idea how they came to that amount but it is nice to at least finally have it completed after 2 years. No blame to VAC. The issue was getting the updated documentation from the...

That was called hoarding which would have others gang up on you and take it away to eat. When you have 12 siblings you learn to play the game. Absolutely and not the bag of air from the store. Mother made it in the oil stove. She would get really mad when we cut it too early but let's face...

We live on the edge of our school zone and my son walks rather than be lazy like so many others. Depending on how fast he decides to go it is 20 to 30 minutes. Have seen others that are a lot closer to the school with parents dropping them off. it is true we used to walk a good distance to...

As a kid we sometimes had winter camping at home but we didn't call it that. We called it the bleeping oil man didn't show up again so now the drums are all empty and a snowstorm has hit so no idea when he is getting here. At least my parents were sexist so I could get warm a bit by...

Sounds good to me and my family. We all hate neighbours. Difficult to find 40 acres with a hospital, high school, shopping mall, Walmart and coastline for mackerel jigging within a short walking distance though. 😁

well don't look to Toronto for a solution. Developers are making tiny condos geared to investors that are now pulling out as they realize they cannot get the rent to cover the mortgage and condo fees. Developers are left with unsold units and looking for the government to help them out of the...

but it will be funny...... to everyone else. :ROFLMAO: not so much the cornflake after about 3 seconds.

That looks like it might be a good start point for soldiers on. They even do the paralympic so seem a good match.

Whatever could you mean :rolleyes: :ROFLMAO: Miss the time when I could approve travel rather than jumping through hoops to get a General to approve it. That's because it is a long weekend. Ottawa used to have lots of office space and I suspect still do. It is DND that doesn't have it...
