Detachment/Region has the final say on the element of a CIC Officer. What the process and criteria is, I dunno...but I assume that when the candidate moves to the CFRC merit list they will match his element appropriately when they go to put him with his corps. It does or could create a little...

What do you expect from a bunch of draft dodging, hippies...not that there's anything wrong with that. One such person managed to get a BJ in the oval office...so kudos to those that can live with themselves.

Some local coverage. heh,heh...you just can't keep anyone happy. It's refreshing to see the military basically say, "Um...live with it. Have a nice day." Reminds me of living in Eastern Passage and residents would complain the one time a year, or one time every couple of years an American...

Central Region will pay up for 80km one way for travel expenses...and may/may not adjust that policy, if the Sea Cadet closest to you is 100km AND has a need. The only decision then would be you driving 100km. Don't be afraid of going Army. Much of your knowledge may translate as well...just...

If that's the case, whoever hired them should be shown the door as well. I do understand what you are saying, but if you want to weed out all the bad apples, you make sure you have a hiring systems that does it's best to weed them out. You'll always have 1 or 2 that get through - but not 22 of them.

Unfortunately the public see police officers as faceless, nameless that, by proxy of their nature of being protectors, are super-human. If we approached our own lives with the high level of standards, expectation, and integrity we expect of our police officers, our society would be much better...

I agree with you, but how does one become "informed"? Ii feel that if the greater public is ignorant...to not address and educate such ignorance is enabling further ignorance. If chastising people for their "opinion" they will be less willing to provide that opinion, and will continue to think...

You should decide now, because it's pretty accurate. I was at the twelfth year before I decided to change careers, the last three years of my law enforcement career were spent doing corporate investigations for a major financial institution and I found out I went from the fat into the fire...

I can't say I would dispute the need or appropriateness to dismiss the entire class, but I would look at the Academy's management and wonder how the atmosphere could be so grim that an entire group of candidates would be under so much pressure that they feel they would have to resort to...

You can't really know what it's truly like to be an LEO until you go into any situation with butterflies in your stomach and face odds possibly stacked against you. But that doesn't mean that you can't make comment on how the situations are handled, or you can't even review them with peers. A...

It's a messy world out there. Few fail to understand that. There may be a liberal thinker or two who disagree, but Mounties/Police Officers just don't tend to kill people out of whim - even the sick and twisted one's. If the forensic evidence was saying a different story, sure...but it doesn't...

What do you think the cost would be on that?

As much as these guys (and myself) bounce on it...Meaford and Area is very very beautiful. The base itself is modern, and well maintained. However, until you've lived there for a while and tried to understand the town and how it's citizens mostly think...well... For what it's worth, they went...

That would be the ideal situation, but it's entirely up to our Area Detachment what happens to them, and who works on them. We've had incidences where we've sent weapons to an external gunsmith for repairs to air rifles, as well as simply had air rifles exchanged. But for .22's, given that DND...

Detachments are starting to get dwindling stocks, and less are being replaced. As well, Sea Cadet corps seem to be the only one's that hold a numerous amount of DP and other rifles. We have to provide our DP rifles to the air and army cadets for Remembrance, as the only .22's they have are the...

Ph.D = Piled Higher and Deeper. One thing that you have to remember about higher education is not to eat your own BS and take yourself TOO seriously. I have a degree and a diploma and one thing I always remind myself is that while you must respect the accreditation of higher learning, it's not...

Regardless of it's taste or if it's good form or not...who says it was a nutjob? Possibly this is a form of psychological warfare being posted by our Nations' enemies. They understand our weaknesses, like we understand their's, and they would be remise in not exploiting it. Of course it could...

You also have the choice and freedom to not watch it.

Best Advice of the Year.

Subscribed. And...DONE. They had no Navy blue shirts...all they had in my size was the olive drab...but that's okay, I need something to wash the Head with. ;) This is a pretty good site, and well worth the money to support.
