Out of curiosity, anyone know what the direction this year will be on PERs for lapsed FORCES test and COVID? With the various lockdowns, and restricting part 1&2 medicals for OUTCANS/deployments, probably not alone in looking at no path to having a valid test this year, so wondering if there...

Hi everyone, Not sure if my googlefu is weak, but looking to get some new glasses while on PGT with no DWAN access, and just wondering what the current policy is on transition lenses in glasses?  Spoke to the local CFSU and got the info for getting the testing / dollar limits on the frames, but...

Trying to wrap my head around something for a Masters project, and wondering if anyone here has some experience with offshore oil rig fire fighting that would be willing to answer some questions on PMs. Specifically looking at something around marine fire insulation and adapting tactics around...

Hi all, Looks like I'll be temporarily in Waterloo this summer for about 4-6 weeks for work (doing some experiments at UofW for a PGT). Unfortunately timing is still up in the air, but guessing it'll be sometime in July/August. Looking at a number of options (sublet, hotel/motel, on campus...

Duncan was a padre in reserves working the southern Ontario area for ages, an frequently was out in the field with the troops in Meaford, Trenton and other training areas, so may be familiar to some people on here.  One of the nicest men I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, there is a...

It's too bad that our own incident reports don't similarly get published; still have never seen a copy of the ALG/PRO BOI or any kind of executive summary showing what led to the collision.

I'm looking for a tailor in the Ottawa area to get my rank changed; some old threads referred to Mario's tailorshop downtown.  Unfortunately, looks like they've closed. Does anyone have any good experiences with anyone else?  Planning on stopping by the Canex to see if they have someone I can...

A pretty good news story, and also probably pretty interesting for anyone that wears prosthetics; http://www.cbc.ca/newsblogs/yourcommunity/2014/07/university-students-fit-florida-boy-with-3-d-printed-arm.html

Thought I'd share this for anyone else that found out they have to apply the 'Value Proposition' to their project.  This is the update to the old IRBs that they have renamed 'Industrial and Technological Benefits' (ITBs).  The project I started working on (Hfx DG replacement) got tagged with it...

Didn't see this posted anywhere else, from the CP via CBC http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/soldier-who-attempted-suicide-on-fast-track-for-dismissal-as-dnd-breaks-promise-1.2631754;

Apologies if this has been asked and answered in a different thread; unfortunately each time I try and search the function hasn't been available. I read the relevant DAODs and referenced QR&Os and couldn't find an answer. I was peripherally involved in something a few years ago that had a...

Good morning, After waking up to all the black Friday carnage, thought this may be appropriate. Like a lot of people, think I happen to be pretty fortunate and don't really want anything for xmas.  But have gotten a few flyers in the mail and decided that this year, if someone is looking for...

Not sure if this is the correct forum; if I missed a JAG specific forum the fault is completely mine. While reading the cancellation message on the MATA/PATA issue, (in the newspaper...) it quoted the 'Crown Liability and Proceedings Act section 32C.' and mentioned they had consulted JAG.  I...

I've done a bit of searching around for a replacement to the A-AD-121-C01/FP-000 Staff writing guide. In particular, looking for some kind of guide on how to write a briefing note. Have looked through the forum but haven't seen anything about BNs in particular. Generally find it a bit...

Unsure if this is the correct forum for this topic, but was unable to find any threads specifically about the ethics side of it. I am currently in the position to qualify for the P.Eng.  However, I've already been in numerous situations where poor technical decisions have resulted in 'near...
