On some things i agree with avoiding the MFRC.... I am not into their warm fuzzy frufru approach to things like some of they play groups and workshops- im alot more comfortable chatting and getting advice from a group of women who dont flinch when someone drops the "f bomb" in conversation...

Everyone seems to be advising on the emotional side for before and during and after tour....  Aside from  how to handle the separation and worries, you also need to make sure all your "ducks" are inn order before hand too.  If you live together, you need to make sure all joint finances are in...

Im sorry, but it makes perfect sense to me when you consider how many Families are on wait lists for PMQ's, and also if you take into consideration how many people "fall in love" on course and get posted, take the GF/BF to the new posting and they dont want to be there.  The relationship...

IMHO, the CF is a Way of Life and requires dedication...not a "we will see how the first year goes" kind of thing..... In my most personal and HUMBLE and truly only MY OWN opinion....that isnt what being a member is.  I believe a  true Member is like so many on these boards and is willing to...

i dont have a website, its really just a hobby of mine.  i do it for friends, and friends of friends pretty much at cost ( factor fabric, quilting, ribbons, flags,  notions, cost of gas to town to get things the local wee shop doesnt carry)  The time spent on it is mine, doing something i like. ...

yes i do, but i always check to make sure they have fabric before i firm up the order. I have one that will be available shortly, thats almost finished, it is Cadpat on one side and its reversable..with red on the other with a yellow ribbon blocked in black. ( tried resizing, but it wont go...

i purchase the "relish" style cadpat at a little local sewing shop.  Its not REAL, the lady said its like one digit off of real.  Feels the same as DH's uniform, looks quite the same, and its not cheap $17/M.  Ive used it to make a couple "S.O.T." Mei Tai baby carriers for friends, and...

i agree, the South Side was almost scary looking, yet the North Side had quite a bit of renovating going on. But its like that here in Borden aswell...  there are PMQ's being stripped and redone all nice, and then there are places like mine just needing minor repair.  We were told they wont...

yes it is, take this August, North Side.

this one doesnt look 8 years old..i may be mistaken...but it looked like a few were being reno'd into the same style... (i have resized this in my image file, but at the moment it apears to be posting large....)

We were in Pet this summer and saw what you are talking about with regards to the demolition.  reading the post by Muffin...it makes sense.  although they are removing and back filling... they may be building elsewhere eventually for ease of congestion and parking and snow removal issues.  We...

i agree with Crantor as Geography makes all the difference just in Canada.  We make a decent living where we are, but if we were posted West, we couldnt do it financially.

im sorry if my origional post came out as a rant, i was wondering What the general opinion was among Members, so i and my MW friends would know whats going on.  Where my DH works, they dont know, so i asked here.  If my husband had asked the same thing, NOONE would have jumped on him like this...

Your kidding me right!  all the BS out there regarding our Military fighting for us to say what we want, and then the same people tell you shut up.  My husband, the Military Member, the one who gets the military pay cheque has read this and thinks its a crock!  I asked a simple question, it was...

I guess i should put my apron back on and get back in the kitchen then, soo sorry to have questions regarding this, especially since i control the finances in this house....ill try to remember that a 'spouse' has no right to question the all powerful Man, or the Military... or heaven forbid...

Does the CANFORGEN spcifically state it WILL be there? All it does say is that the new wage will be instated.

does the CANFORGEN say YES or NO about the back pay being out mid december?  THe Lumpsum thing being delayed is why i ask, but i believe that refers to the Officer thing.

Piper: Bless your Heart and Soul.  Thank you for sharing your words with us.  You are an inspiration and an incredible Soldier.  You are in our hearts and prayers and hope you achieve a full recovery and your hearts desire. :cdn: :salute:

My humble opinion is (based on my husbands experience with this)  when you are injured over seas, being compensated by veterans affairs, isnt always easy, infact it can take YEARS...my husband was injured in Kosovo years back, and he still hasnt finished with dealing with them.  I believe that...
