Yes, I guess there are always exceptions, but please clear a few things up for me as I attend Civie U and I know you attended RMC, so:
1. I thought everyone at RMC pays for R&Q? Or are they just paying for rations and not quarters?
2. As a married member with dependants, wouldn't he be elligible to live off-campus?
3. I'm not sure that's "the reason" people are RMC don't get PLD. I thought whether you are paying for quarters or not, if you're living in CF accomodations, you don't get PLD. For example, someone living (and paying rent for) a PMQ at CFB Edmonton would not get the PLD for Edmonton, only those living out on the economy would.
Also, when it comes to "living expenses" I would make the argument that they are not subsidized. Your rent (quarters) may be paid for, but that's only a part of your living expenses. Rations being as expensive as they are, plus the other things that the CF doesn't pay for, it would be easy enough to make that arguement. Thoughts?
