Alright. I am confused and I don't get it.
This person claims to be a reservist.
Everything said here is true and is as well in my pers file that was used at my PRB. During the PRB some major read something out of the DAODs or whatever and said that my withdrawal does not have to be accepted. The doctor just put me on two weeks sick leave so he thinks they will have to RTU me for missing so much trg. I understand that reservists are voluntary workers. But it really doesn't seem like it up here. I was on excused duty the past 4 days and the staff still had me with the course over those days doing activities such as nav and etc. I would raise my right hand in a courtroom that everything here is true.
A reservist cannot under any circumstances, other than an actual activation of the reserves by order of the Governor General or a duly signed class "C" contract, be forced to work or stay in the CF even one more day than from the one he/she asks for release. Period. End of statement That is it.
ANY reservist on a course that indicates he/she wishes to release is absolutely and without any other delay or attempt at changing his/her mind, to bet R.T.U'd immediately. And his own unit is to process the release without any delays, unless there are disciplinary aspects to this we are not aware of.
Nothing else will do as reservists have no set duration of service and serve as volunteers at their own will.
I don't know if this person is telling us the truth, but if he/she is, then there is very serious potential for redress action against his chain of command at the training base ... or at his home unit if it is aware of the situation and not doing anything.
That's it and that's all. You cannot keep reservists against their will. All of this talk of death, near death, potential death in the family is irrelevant: Reservist said I want t quit the CF - That's it. Game over.
Murphy709: If what you indicate in these forum is true, then write on a piece of paper/memo form addressed to your course OC that you have indicated your wish to quit the CF to your course instructor on - indicate date - but they refuse and he/she (the OC) refuses to process you back to your unit to process the release and that if he/she (the OC) does not take immediate corrective action in the next 24 hours, you will have no choice but file a complaint with the MP's for unlawful confinement.
