A 17 is it worth it to go res then at 18 transfer to reg? Is the wait to transfer to reg shorter than a civillian going through the reg application process? What's the average time for a res > reg transfer?

Well my buddy went in today and was told there's quite a few spots open. Damn weed, waiting is a punishment well deserved I suppose. Seriously though, at what stage am I drug tested? I'm only going to assume medical, unless it's during reliability screening which I guess could make sense. My...

Last time I checked, that's what opinion means. But thanks everyone! I still haven't gotten this answered though, is my drug test done when I go in for my medical?

6 months? Wow, but really I won't even get to the drug testing part if I admit to smoking and therefore be told to wait 6 months, which in my opinion is quite hefty. Will they listen to what I say and then drug test me anyways and depending on the result I will continue or not? I'm not in it...

When should I expect my drug test? Do I do it when I go for my medical? Is it done at the begining or what, where is it along the process? Because I'd like to be clean by the test. If not I'll just wait another month before I start the application process.

I just talked to someone from the CFRC and they said not to worry about the letters. Do they know what they're talking about? Are my chances really going to go down the drain due to past substance use? If I don't get into the reserves, will I have a chance to go reg force later or will I be...

I think people are misunderstanding me... I don't have an interest of doing drugs while in the CF, nor am I dependent on any. Hopefully everything works out. When is normal intake for the reserves is there a specific time frame where most recruiting is done or does it happen year long?

The way you worded it made it sound much better, I'll tell 'em. Isn't it just if you pass the drug test you're good to go? I can't see how they could properly enforce a "clean time". I'll make sure I ask next time I'm in though.

Skeletor, yes I am 16. I've talked to him twice. I turned 16 last august and right after that I went into the CFRC to clear up the same issue this thread is about. I wanted to know what the training plan was. I was told it basically means that you're in school. He told me I would be fine to join...

To be quite honest, I forget his name - if I saw it I would remember but there's no staff list for me to look up online. I'm surprised two different recruiters are saying two completely different things though. He was from the Toronto CFRC and I believe it was polish (ended in ski) and started...

Your comments made me curious, if drugs show up on the test they allow me to sober up and apply again? And is that only the case if I told them I've done the drug that showed up in the test beforehand? I appreciate your comments, I suppose I will tell them. I sure as hell hope it doesn't...

I know I will be tested, and it's not like I'm trying to manipulate the system to smoke again in case that's what you made from my post. I'm just wondering, to see if in fact weed will show up - it won't alter whether or not I tell them about it. I'm still on the fence about MDMA though, I've...

I'm heading out to get my letters and head off to the CFRC to get everything started for the reserves. I have a few questions though. Hold off your opinion on weed, everyone has their views and that's fine - it's not what I'm asking though. I have smoked weed for the last couple years, on and...

You are incorrect. Went to the CFRC the other day and was told at 16 I'm fine. I asked about the entry plan and he asked, "Are you in high school?" I of course answered yes. He told me that's it! So if you're 16, in high school and have parental consent you are in fact ale to join to reserves.
