https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cpddxy9r4mdo Curious about people's thoughts on this. AFAIK Germany abolished theirs in 2011 but with rumbings they plan on reinstating it. And it seems most nations in Europe that border Russia still have some form of it. Along with several nations around the...

I'm curious if we have any Ex Pat members on this forum. MY plan later in life is to retire to somewhere warmer in Asia most likely. Somewhere where our dollar goes much further and not having to deal with our winters anymore. I'm just curious if its hard to transfer our pensions and...

Just received notice about the settlement of this class action, hearing scheduled 10 a.m. EST on December 18, 2023. This is regarding Miscalculation of Disability Pensions. More information can be found at Miscalculation of Disability Pensions Class Action This appears appears to be...

Watching Amazing race tonight, they were showcasing a challenge from Esquimalt. Where the racers had to put out one of the field tents from the Army. While having serving members around watching them, encouraging, etc. Sounds great, but something about the show really annoyed me. The...

I've now been out for over 6 years but this is something I always wondered how I did. I've always had career managers make comments that I did exceptionally well on it or mentioned a high percentile, but I'd like to know just for my own info. I know while I was in none would disclose how I did...

I'm writing to see if anyone else was in a similar situation and its been resolved. June 2021 VAC reached out to me saying there was a pay adjustment going back to when I medical released that affected my monthly IRB. (AFAIK) They requested for me to give a release of information between them...

Just curious if anyone has successfully applied for support on a new injury after release. I currently have an awarded injury on both my legs. This injury basically ended up making my walking ability restricted and difficult for long periods or even what would be considered normal use...

Came across this earlier today. Absolutely disgusting display by a vet in public on remembrance day. The video isn't high quality, but can anyone ID both medals he is wearing. I think the left one is South west Asia with Afghanistan bar, and I think his cap badge is RCR?

Ukraine International Flight 752, a Boeing 737, crashed outside Tehran. Still seems like there is more happening. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/plane-...hran-1.5418562 Also: USGS has confirmed a quake southwest of Shiraz.

Just looking for some advice/thoughts. I'm a non smoker and havent been a smoker for my whole military career. During my time in the Navy I developed a nagging cough that I couldnt shake. Similar to shack hack that I had while in Basic. I also developed sleep apnea over this time. I seen my...

Just got a letter the other day addressed to me with no cover letter, no return address, etc. Before I opened it, it looked like one of those generic credit card letters. It appears to be a class action lawsuit run by the law firm McInnes Cooper, for former Members of the CAF who on or after...

My SISIP Manulife was just terminated after 24 months. Suffice to say I am in full panic mode right now. Some backround: I was released for a physical medical condition, but my mental health has deteriorated tremendously over that time. I started my SISIP LTD two years ago, went to school...

It's been awhile since I posted here. But I just wanted to sound off on some issues I have been experiencing. Not sure if this is the right place for me to post this. I apologize in advance for a long post. I also apologize for my time line being all over the place. Let me preface all of this...

The protest in question: http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/canada/nova-scotia/cornwallis-protest-chief-grizzly-mama-canada-day-1.4187445 This involves 5 guys in Halifax ( I think 3 or 4 are in the military). In the videos they never identified themselves as military but the 'protesters' have started...
