    The Great Gun Control Debate

    If this went through, I would be more inclined to purchase firearms.  The whole PITA process of ATT's and the power of the CFO (Ontario in my case), has played large in my mind to not bother.  Could (and should) more be done, absolutely, but I realize it is highly unlikely.  I have no doubt...

    "Six Californias"

    After they recalled Davis, and elected Arnold...twice, I am not surprised by this at all.  2 of the Americans I worked with, were from California, and their favourite topic was how absolutely insane that state is on a number issues.

    Public Affairs Officer ( PAO ) - merged

    No, if that were the case I would have locked it, this is merely about consolidation, since your first question was asked and answered by the appropriate person.

    I am a CAF member & I want better pay and benefits (a merged thread)

    As to the gym provision due to employment requirements, I can see it can be a valid argument and there are several examples in the civilian world where this also happens.  Nuclear Plant Security Teams, many firehalls, some police services, particularly for their SWAT/ERT folks.

    Should I accept the offer or not?

    You sound spoiled and immature.  You have the wherewithal to complete a Bachelors Degree and get into Master's program, but can't make up your own damn mind about joining the CF, and then bitching about the low starting rates.  Guess what sunshine, you aren't special.  Many others have made much...

    Do you need your social insurance number before you are paid?

    Further to what DAA said (and in reply to Mr Cyr) it is in fact the RESERVE UNIT, that takes the SIN, and inputs into RPSR, as they are ones who typically conduct the enrollment/swearing in/signing terms of service.  Exception are usually things like co-op courses with new recruits from...

    Walts, posers & wannabes (merged)

    I think it's the overall lack of stature/standing of the military in the general populace that is responsible for the lack of such blatant and frequent waltery.

    Negotiating Base Pay

    Salaries are not negotiable. The "previous experience and training may result in higher pay" means either a) you have prior military service/training which means you "may" start higher up the pay grid, then a brand new raw recruit or b) you are granted training equivalencies for your occupation...
