Well, ill explain my situation so maby i can receive knowledgeable advice. Well, im interested in the reserves for military experience. I would like to use the reserves as a "stepping stone" to regular force. My ambition is to become a Infantry officer in the regular force. My original plan...

Great movie, own the DVD. I myself might watch it, thats after the stalingrad documentary of course ;)

  My oppinon on training officers is that all eligible applicants must have a BA, BS, ect before they apply. If accepted, you spend one year at a base for military training. The British seem to save tax dollars that way (sandhurst)

Well, ill give you my story, although, it's will be long. I am a grade 12 student currently enrolled in a public high school. I did not apply to RMC or for ROTP because I wasn't sure of the career I desired to pursue yet. The current classes am enrolled in are as follows: Law 12 History 12...

Frank, are you officer training at St Jean? I hope to enter St Jean next year after 1 year of UNI and reserve training.

You know, he has a point. I saw a scouts canada advertisement on televison that showed kids canoeing, hiking, repelling, skiing, and kayaking. CF television add seemed rather poor in my oppinon. As far as i know, the CF add isnt on television anymore.

That is one statement he repeated to me multiple times. The problem with physiotherapy (i was in physiotherapy 2 years earlier for tthe same condition) is that i can only attend once every 2 weeks because of the huge amount of people attending physio. I left after 5 months of treatment because...

As a student currently enrolled in a highschool. The only time the CF visited our school was for RMC and to speak to first nations students about CF jobs. Now, out of the 70 first nations students in our school, only 6 showed. Our school is 550 in size, why dosnt the CF try and extract the...

  I work part time at an autobody shop, and you wont find a frame beggining to rust after 3 years. I was wondering how much plastic is on these chevies, because if they are half plastic, expect them to look like shit within 5 years.

Yes, i spoke to a doctor already. He told me some interesting information. He is a former British Army doctor and he said Runners knees was common for infantry, mostly because of running, which focuses on your outside muscle on your thigh and thus, the inside muscle gets weak and your knees...

I have a condition called runners knees at the moment. I was wondering if any servering member or former serving member has had or has this condition. I do not experience pain in my knees very often during physical activity. I am currently trying to rehabilitate myself before i apply to the...

I would like to ask any member who knows if you could be selected with the knee condition "runners knees"? I have had this condition for over 4 years, although pain in minor, and rare in most cases. Im afraid when i am medicaly inspected by a phycisian i be voided because of my knees. I also...

  Its hard to compare Canada and Australia culturally. In my oppinon, the Aussies have established a culture that would be hard to erase, while Canadians (in my oppinon) are still trying to establish a culture that distinguishes Canadians from Americans. Also, the amount of British decendants in...

I was told be a recruiter about 3 months ago that you could do a temporary transfer to the British Army for 1 year.

Actually, i will quote a passage from my Law 12 book. "In 1990, the ratification proces came to an abrupt end when Elijah Harper, a Cree, and a member of the Manitoba legislator, blocked debate of the accord by using the parliamentary process."

I was reading the thread about Canada's greatest military hero and I thought I would like to inform some about Tommy Prince in Korea. I remember talking to a family friend named Ron Rivington (chief log scaler, Ministry of forests, British Columbia.) He told me about Tommy Prince, the drunken...

Well, I remember seeing the DND commercials a while back. Also, we have recruitment book marks in our school. No poster though. I remember one student joking while looking at the book mark that said "Strong, proud, today's Canadian forces." He said. "demorarised, weak, today's Canadian...

The chances of the provinces approving of the abolishment is pretty small. Also, you must consider that Ottawa has always had every province on side before it amends the constitution. Im not sure why, mostly because the rest of the country had to please Quebec before it would agree.

My bad on the "notwithstanding clause" but dosnt the country require 2/3rds of the provinces and 50%+ of the populations to make any changes to the charter?
