Hello everyone, I apologize in advance if this has been answered umpteen times before.  I have decided I wish to apply for the CF, however, I have a civil case (I am the claimant not the respondant) which, if not settled out of court, will eventually go to court.  I know that if you have CCC...

of course there are personal reasons.  If there wasn't ANY personal reason nobody would join... There is a difference between a personal reason and a selfish reason.

Good in respect to discovery and progress, which is the core of the article, HOWEVER, if you have turned on the TV lately, we see the vast majority of reality when it comes to agenda.  If these things are what the extremists see of our culture, and associated with it, things like race, and...

I agree fully.  My argument is not about the people who change/mature etc. throughout their time in the forces, but rather those who join strictly for the benefits and not the duty/sense of honour/the life itself, initially.  I totally agree that the military hones you and changes occur within a...

The thing that really ticks me off, is people who join, who at their very core, whether they can admit it or not, are there for themselves, not for their brothers and sisters, and not for their country.  Of course you always need to look out for yourself, you gain much from the training and all...

Rest In Peace, great defender. My condolences to the family and friends.  A quick recovery wished to any others injured. IED's really make me angry.

For sure.  It's not like I completely don't ever care if a cheque comes or not.  Obviously hard work done deserves compensation (a 'job' *laugh*) but it wasn't even a factor in my deciding to enlist.  That being said, I will most certainly expect a cheque every pay cycle ;)  If I didn't care at...

Excellent point man... This is exactly what I have always thought about the CF.  When I put in my application, it wasn't because I wanted to get paid, or wanted to use the forces for my own reasons.  In fact I had completely forgotten that I would get paid in the reserves.  I didn't know...

Well, both of us handed in our applications today, at the local armoury, and there were no problems :D  My buddy's receipt was good enough, they just copied it and gave him the original back.  Thanks everyone for the feedback, it really helped us both out.  I absolutely cannot wait until BMQ...

Thanks very much, I appreciate the feedback.

Draw any conclusion you like.  However if you are thinking that I was insinuating that the military is full of sociopaths, don't get your panties in a twist. It's not what I meant. :P

So I have an update, not that it matters in particular... My pal found his receipt, and will attempt to use it during the application should he not recieve his card in time.  Should it be a problem?  I mean, technically it is a government document showing his SIN information... Will it depend on...

Sociopaths in the military? No freaking way........ *cough cough* wow...glad to see we had to spend money on a 'study' to determine this....

Though it sure must be nice to have 2 months of holidays every year.  My step father sure made use of his time.  Must be nice to indulge ones self in all the niceties and freedoms our military has ensured for us over the decades/century and then to be able to spend money on those things rather...

That's a good article George Wallace.  An interesting perspective on the etymology of names.  I think that the seemingly lack of 'conflicts of interest' that by all rights should exist between the leftist and the 'Islamists', should raise a warning flag immediately.  Breaking the law or no...

*laughs heartily* I'll try to remember that one... It may come in handy  ;D Though perhaps I should let him know that one too  :mg: Thanks again

hahahha, I knew that was coming up, I'd take a picture of my SIN card, but then I would be revealing some personal information I don't care to put on the net lol.... As the case is, hes a younger guy, 19, has a fulltime job, and wasn't contemplating enlisting at the time (about a couple weeks...

Thanks very much everyone... Now if he was a silly person and threw it out or lost it, thinking that he didn't need it, is he up skite crick without a paddle?  Can he go where he went to pay for it, and get another?  I am not sure if this is the case, but I figure I better ask anyways.

Thanks for the responses.  How would he go about getting the receipt from Service Canada?

Hey everyone, Okay, I did a bunch of searches and couldn't find anything regarding S.I.N. cards, so here goes.  My friend is planning to apply with me, however he is in the process of getting a replacement social insurance card.  Now as far as I know, the recruiter wants the card, but if he has...
