The only answer to that question is to go to your local recruitment centre, sit down with a recruiter, and ask them. They can offer more information, as the recruitment application requires your education, volunteer and employment experience, other training, and a whole other host of...

If you search on the army.ca site, you can actually find the link that explains the vision trade requirements for all trades within the military that will take a V4. There are some, so you can still serve, but you'll have to look through to see if you WANT to be in any of those trades. I did a...

In all honesty, wouldn't one consider all Canadian citizens as "potential candidates" for the Canadian Forces? As one of the previous posters stated, thoughts without intention or follow through are just that, thoughts. I am not a mind reader, so I could not say that there have not been millions...

One thing to note on the website is that while there is still a legend indicating the red stars means in demand trades, it no longer indicates that green check marks mean trades that are currently accepting. TAKE THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT, this is merely my opinion, BUT... Judging by the...

One of the quickest Tim Horton's I have ever been to was the one at the base in Edmonton, they are super fast there, if you go on a weekday. The product I missed, from years ago, is the chocolate snowflake. It was out during a doughnut of the month time- it was awesome. (kind of having a fat...

Tough chick indeed! Although I think it would be odd, I have heard that it is possible to not know if you're pregnant. (I would assume especially if you weren't late at anytime, pregnancy wouldn't be the first thing that came to mind, particularly if the woman was on birth control) There would...

I read a CBC article on the same woman. In that article they noted that she was deployed to Afghanistan in March of this year. (if she delivered at 34 weeks, that would have made her anywhere from 5-9 weeks pregnant) So, she may not have known that she was pregnant when she deployed. I was...

I think some people confuse the term "army wife." (or military spouse, there are plenty of men out there as well, supporting their wives in the service) From my experience, many military spouses have been some of the most tolerant, supportive, and helpful people that I have ever met. And yes...

Similar question to the one initially posted. As I was looking at the pay scales for basic officers, what pay scale would a DEO officer cadet be? There are two current categories, officer cadet ROTP (which is not DEO obviously) and OCTP (officer cadet training program). Then, the transition to...

I read that a little while back. I found it just okay. My latest pick is "The Warlord's Son."

The Bachelor degree in business or management (and additionally a few others) are the preferred degrees for logistics. That being said, any degree is considered acceptable to apply with.

I think you're asking if you can be selected without being merited listed first, right? No, you are merit listed firstly, then selections are made based on those people currently on the merit list.

The board selections for different trades occur at different times during the year. (for example, after my interview, the person interviewing explained when the selection for my trade would be) The best thing to do is contact your recruitment center and ask them when the selection board sits for...

Someone actually told me this at a Timmies drive thru as well. The bills will melt right to your dash if you leave it in the heat. I don't really need to worry about that though, no fifties travelling through here anytime soon! I wonder if it would get warm enough in a safe to melt them.

Congratulations, I am glad that everything worked in your favor. Good luck on selling your home, and the move!

It would be best to contact the reserve unit that you wish to join.  Here is the link to their website: http://www.canadianscottishregiment.ca/index.php?area_id=1011 They actually have a Nanaimo area recruitment contact. What you have to do is contact them and ask them what they are currently...

I'm not sure if you grasped how it was stated, but in order to see if there are jobs at a reserve unit, you have to contact the actual reserve unit. If you look the force.ca website, you don't get an accurate picture of what jobs are available  at different reserve units around the country. Each...

I would go talk to a recruiter at the recruitment center. You can tell them interests, education you have, and your background and they can have good insight into what you would do well at, and what you would be accepted into. Depending on whether you want to be an officer or enlisted, a...

After reading this, I couldn't help but see the relevance to this thread. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/story/2012/06/13/edmonton-provincial-achievement-tests.html

I found this article this morning; there is another teacher at Ross Shep facing discipline over giving out zeroes. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/story/2012/06/12/edmonton-no-zero-second-teacher-facing-discipline.html I also found this article rather interesting. It is about a student...
