SAR Girl, I am talking from experience here. I have been involved in administering hundreds of personal searches (strip searches). They are authorized under section 98 of the Customs Act.

Having worked various roles at a major port of entry into Canada, both in the Customs and Immigration stream. I now currently work inland in an enforcement capacity and I can say categorically mellian you are completely out to lunch on that statement/belief on how permanent residents or...

Rarely do CBSA swab for explosives (they never swab for gun shot residue), what we do swab for on a very regular basis is NARCOTICS.... So I will make an educated assumption (you should try it sometime, you may find it refreshing), that the CBSA Officer was swabbing your kit for NARCOTICS.

Count DC, Thanks for the info. I may be having a blonde moment, but can you specify which Compensation Advisor one would speak to? The DND type or as in my case the CBSA employer type?

Since this forum is not affiliated to DND, why not form the question to the Minister of National Defence? You will get an official answer that you can use for whatever purpose you desire.

Just being curious....why are you asking this question?

Sincerity and honesty is all I can recommend. Admitting you made a mistake and expressing what you learnt from it will probably work to your benefit. It will show a recruiter that when you make a mistake (and you will make many in life) you can recognize it was a mistake and then correct your...

Ruckmarch, Think of the positive side of cops talking on their cells while driving.... They will be to distracted to constantly pick on, harass and violate the Charter rights of minorities!!!  ;D

What I do see is someone who is not complying with what he is being told. If you look at the very beginning of the tape what you do see is someone on his back reaching up for the cop. The cop then is giving him commands, for which he is not complying with in the least. The knee's I believe were...
