It's the same link, yes, but a brand new document. The previous one was dated February 2008. This new one was just posted on the CFLRS site this week. In the document, there are new instructions, diagrams, and other detailed information that is very useful for anyone heading to St. Jean. I see that they have even added a rather lengthy section on "sexual misconduct". How interesting that the Commandant felt the need to include that in the Joining Instructions.  ;D
 
I like how it tells guys to wear "clean" pants but not the women.  What's a pull?  Oops, guess they meant pullover.
A cubical lamp?  Is it square??  :D

Lost in translation, maybe??

I'm still relatively happy, all things considered, but a whole lot better off monetarily.
 
I'm kind of surprised they didn't add "Don't bring animals" after what some kid tried to pull...

I believe you will also be briefed once you get there on the ZERO tolerance policy there is for harassment or sexual misconduct. Both instructors and new recruits have ruined their careers over such matters.

I don't know why anyone would take the risk, but I guess 13 or 15 weeks is too long to go 'without' for some people.  :P
 
They don't even have to wait that long, that is what weekend leave passes are for.
