They are not my comments, but an individual's post related to the article.  I am pro-volunteer as I have worked in many areas where volunteer services - ambulance & fire - are the only first responders for a community. The difficulty is maintaining staff, demanding training, and 24 hour...

The patient ended up getting transported by Life Flight. Also, from the comment section: In the days before HRM there were 35 plus volunteer firefighters and medical first responders in this community, because of the ridiculous requirements that were put in place by the HRM fires services to...

Hello all, and thanks for the help in advance. What I am trying to do is identify this medal from WWII.  It is my understanding that is was issued to a sailor who served with the merchant marine.  Initially, I thought it might be a Victory Medal; however, from my research the ribbon seems...

Now that is what I call a loaded SUV.  Did you get power windows also? :)

Nice video.  I was surprised on how low the B-1 was.  I am no air force expert but I would have suspected that they would have been dropping their payload from a very high altitude.

I would find it hard to believe that all the lines are full until the end of the mandate.  This is not the case.  My advice to anyone, CF or civi, would be to just keep calling and working on getting a deployment.  As we all know the CF works in strange and wondrous ways and sometime continuous...

I have also noticed the the QL3/PCP students have switched over to a civilian style EMS uniform.  From the few preceptors that I have talked to they say that this has helped with patients being more receptive to them as well as reduced negative patient interactions.

It is my understanding that there are a few other names in PCP training in BC.  I can see people's point of view regarding the admin cost of sending troops from Borden all the way to BC.  I have always wondered if a similar model of PCP training could be set up in Alberta especially considering...

How many did we buy?

I will be in town also.  Sometime in August we should start working on the details.

I think you have had many good ideas so far.  I think a phone card would be a nice idea also.  I also think a camera is a great idea as the one thing I regret not having during my basic was something to take pictures with.  My basic was a long time ago and I made many lifelong friends and grew a...

Very nice.  Makes some of my keepsakes from back in the day look lame!

Just an update regarding the HS PRL.  As far as the PRL goes it doesn't matter what civi training you have, unless you have your 6B it is a no go.

I got one also.  This time the name was Edwin Kwaussi...

The link is missing.  Could you please re-post it?

Sadly for you I see no way for you to get your QL6 without going through the training.  If you take a quick look over a few other threads you will see that there is a lot of discussion regarding res force people with civi training wanting to PLAR a QL6, you see reg force QL6 guys trying to PLAR...

I just saw the post about the 8th.  From the sounds of it I think it is off.  Thats to bad as I am off tonight.  Perhaps we could throw up some dates, then from there pick a time and a place that works for everyone. I am in New West right now so I was thinking of the River's Reach Pub.  The...

I am glad to see that some people are having luck with their recruitment process.  I am happy for them but mad (for me) at the same time as my application drags on.  I suspect when you walk into the recruitment office they must flip a coin and that decides the track your file takes.  Head is...
