    Good morning and happy Canada Day  :moose: (so cool, I could not resist), As part of my CT/OT I had to undergo an eye exam in a private medical clinic for a rather hefty sum. Since I am not with the CFRC nor with the CF H Svcs Center, I was wondering to whom I should submit my claim. Part of the...

    Confusion - when the left hand says "x" and the right "y" - Eye exam aircrew

    Ok... putting the last touches to my CT/OT, I completed my part II for initial aircrew yesterday, at the Ottawa CF Health Services Centre. Everything went well, fit for duty. BUT...

    I thought some of you might enjoy this particularly sick tale: http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2010/03/18/hospital-robbery.html Now, is it me, or some people deserve a serious kick in the ass? I can think of one or two MWO's who could teach some manners to those punks...

    Hello everyone, another question for you: Under CIB 204, an officer CTing from an NCM ranks is paid a higher starting salary than a straight "off-the-street" DEO. What about an officer CTing into a new trade from an unskilled position? I couldn't find anything in CIB204. Thanks!
