    Venting, where?

    Well I'm listening. lol Today frustrated the shit out of me to receive a call from the RC asking for my new address, when I gave it to my MCC before I moved in September. A letter from the RMO was returned to the RC Medical Team hence why they were calling me for my new address. This is the...

    Ottawa Recruits?

    I am curious if there are many Ottawa Recruits on the board. I would love to find some like minded people in the same process, and mind set, to maybe shoot the crap but most of all physically train together, do some activities that are required as a new recruit. I am starting to rock climb next...

    Talk about determination! ;) Way to go. Great advice here.  Making sure you have a reference point of someone you can contact makes all the difference. Keeping on top of things. I am happy to read you are applying for something specific and are holding out for it. Most of all, that after all...

    How Long Did You Wait?

    I applied in April 2012. I have some medical stuff to take care of and will reapply this April. I found to do the CFAT and security interview it went fast. As did the medical. It was waiting on Borden that took some time. Like I have read, it all depends on the trade you apply for. The...
