you know, if we're paid to shovel them out, bring on the snow storm I say

I think he's referring to the fact that historically Toronto sorta likes everyone to bend to it's will I guess you could say, like when they had the forces come down and shovel them out after the snow storm and other stuff like that

I can hope, so long as I don't hold my breath.  :P I like the weekend courses and all, but seriously during exam period it IS tight. But like I said, these are extreme circumstances, they just may have to or else we could be looking to close to, if not more than, 60 PATs come October if our...

Yeah, hopefully, but we haven't had summer BMQs over here for 2 years now, only weekend ones during the school year, but *crosses fingers* special circumstances call for special action; it would be pretty awesome to finish spring exams and head off for a month come back and go off again to do SQ...

No problem, I wasn't really expecting anything to pop up, just asking in case there is something.  ;D

Nicely played. Made me chuckle. Pardon my ignorance, but what is 101?

do you have anything on the history of the 763rd Communications Regiment (Ottawa)?

I had to laugh at your name Spanky, when a candidate on my BMQ was asked the name of his rifle he replied Spanky and when asked what kind of name that is he replied it's his wife's nickname.  Inspection was pretty lax from there, haha. I HAVE asked before and been told that it IS okay to load...

Well, technically speaking, reservists are responsible for their own physical fitness anyway since we don't have enough time to really shape up during our weekly Trgs so that should be covered already anyway. As for the other ideas, I'll pass them around to my CoC, see if we can't get something...

I've only ever seen the normal sign in sheets, never pink ones, maybe some of the other members have a better answer.

yeah, as far as I know each regiment is in charge of their own budget, we at 763 for example still have Trg once a week I really can't wait to see how they're going to adjust for all this (training and qualification wise) I really hope this means we'll see a summer BMQ here, because restarting...

I'm a reservist with 763 Communications Ottawa.  Our BMQ is at Cannaught Ranges. So yeah, Ottawa is the answer to your question. and thank you DirtyDog for clearing up that name for me.

thanks for confirming that fact recceguy, now I don't look like an idiot ;D my mom was talking to my uncle this morning (who is RegForce) and he said that there have been some Junior Leadership something-or-rather courses that were canceled as well (a course for MCpls, can't remember what it's...

Hey guys, just wanted to make an area where we can discuss the current fund shortage for reserves. I heard there's one unit down in London who are down to one training night a month and apparently some are on complete stand down until the new Fiscal year (April 1st, not to be confused with new...

Really cool story. Good luck in your endeavors and stay safe.
