In my opinion BRIHARD is about 50% correct here. Most if not all RCMP members that are serving in the PRes are either former PRes or Reg F. That allows them to pick up without loss of quals or sacrifice to their time off....if they are content to stay at their entry rank. I know personally of...

Garmin Foretrex 401 https://buy.garmin.com/en-CA/CA/on-the-trail/wrist-worn/foretrex-401/prod30026.html Wears like a watch, no fuss no muss! I saw them in the CANEX in Edmonton for about $150.

He spent a very cold weekend exercise in Chilliwack without a sleeping bag that may or may not have been left in the armouries after being...

Brihard- That 20 year contract has an opt out clause of 3 years notice, if the LMD municipalities are not happy with the Force....put in place due to the manpower shell game and communications issues encountered over the last few years. D&B- The SS (yes that is what it was called) was replaced...

Rules changed in Feb of 2007, myself and JH lobbied for 7 years to have the rules changed. Gen Hillier saw the sense in it and made the change.

You can also factor in that over 35% of the Force has 24 and a day....two bad days and the institutional knowledge has the ability to walk!

The MPPA is pushing for Collective Bargaining and Binding Arbitration. This change in labour relations will be good for all members, we will no longer be the Zellers of policing. The pay council report that was recently released was scathing....yes we are cost effective, because we get paid less...

Hmmmm, D&B was my OC on that EX....This is awkward I think we may have been responsible for some of those incidents! D&B wasn't that the EX where you threw yourself on the wire obstacle?

I was On Guard 90, It wasn't just an Ontario MO Ex. I was on the Western one in Wx, it was a standard MilCon style Ex with about 4 days of stand Trg and a 2 or 3 day FTX. I still have a US style shoulder patch we were issued as members of the 12 Militia Strike Bn......I don't know who made this...

There was a post on here not so long ago about the U.S. Army blouse that our new Cbt shirt is based on. It seems that the majority of improvements that we are adopting ( collar, Velcro, cut) has been binned by the yanks and they are going to redesign the shirt. :facepalm:
