    Updated Army Service Dress project

    Or perhaps SOF adopted Multicam not to be different but to be more uniform in appearance. Previously, SOF operators wore a hodge podge of whatever off-the-shelf uniform pieces best suited their current task, in a variety of mismatched colours and patterns. By switching to Multicam, all of a...

    Army-Test.com: CFAT

    The current official practice found on Forces.ca is the closest thing you'll find to the actual test in question type and difficulty level. Keep in mind that it is timed and only a pen/pencil and scrap paper are allowed.

    Can a Reservist Switch to ROTP?

    Yes, it is very common for reservists to apply for ROTP, especially when they join while still in high school. You'd be looking at applying in the fall. I first recommend looking at RMC's website to check if you meet the course and GPA requirements for entry. Pilot and MPO are both extremely...

    Emergency Response Times

    Must be true if the LPC keeps saying it... five fingers, if that's what the party demands.

    Emergency Response Times

    There are a few towns in the U.S. where gun ownership is mandatory and "stand-your-ground" laws exist... is this what you mean by "let the greater population take care of things"? I doubt these U.S. jurisdictions have many armed home invasions.

    Pets in the CAF

    What dogs have you seen on deployments in the states?... Were they military police service dogs, like the ones that sniff for explosives?

    Starting as NCM to Officer

    I recommend using the official practice test on Forces.ca as a guide on what to study. The problem solving questions on the CFAT will largely be of the same type and difficulty as the ones on the practice test. If you can figure out what math skills are required to complete each question, then...

    Starting as NCM to Officer

    There is no connection between getting a masters at RMC and getting commissioned, other than the majority of RMC's graduate students are likely serving officers already. The undergraduate students at RMC are regular force (RegF) officer cadets enrolled through the Regular Officer Training Plan...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    Requesting the underlying application for judicial review to be dismissed is not the same as requesting that the review itself be overruled, with the FCA coming to different conclusions on matters of law. As well, both the CCLA and AG provided new evidence for the judicial review after the...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    There was apparently no legal dispute about the reasonableness or unlawfulness of the EA invocation raised by the plaintiff and countered by the defence, which as you say is the hallmark of a trial... if you say so? The second part of my question was, if the FCA can reverse portions or the...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    Perhaps I have more knowledge of Administrative Law than you think. You also gave a definition of a trial that would encompass the Judicial Review of the EA by the Federal Court, but dismissed it as not a form of trial, because you say so. Do you care to provide an actual definition of a trial...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    Your definition of trial is a bit off. The judicial review by the Federal Court did involve evidence being brought before the court by two adversarial parties. The judge established the facts and applied the law. Its not an administrative hearing. Is the Federal Court of Appeal able to render...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    New stance seems to be that when decisions are popular, the PM made them as a decisive leader, and when they're not, it was the Governor General who made them as the "sole decision-maker".

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    It seems that way. The appeal insists that the Governor General was the "sole decision-maker", and that it's her decision that was under review.

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    You seem to like to mischaracterize my statements. What I said was that rather than have the court change the judge's decision (a new decision), as the appeal court often does, they're asking for them to dismiss "the underlying application for judicial review" (a determination that the matter...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    It's interesting they make plenty of claims that the judge erred in law but don't request the appeal court to render a new decision, rather they want them to order a retrial, which only has the benefit of bringing new facts to the case (and drastically increasing the plaintiffs legal costs)...

    Is an estranged father considered immediate family member?

    Yes, your father is considered "immediate family" regardless of if you have contact with them. If you do not know where they are, state so when completing your security clearance application. Not properly disclosing information can lead to being denied a security clearance.

    ROTP Selection Question

    RMC doesn't typically send anything for ROTP, the CAF selects applicants and provides offers. It is not like a typical university offer, rather it is selection for an employment contract. RMC essentially enrolls anyone the CAF selects for them, that is why the RMC admissions department...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    My post was in reply to Remius' claim that on Feb 4th the protest was "declared illegal", which it was not. Such a declaration was made as part of the EA declaration, however. Obviously there can be individual criminal offences that don't inherently make the protest itself illegal... that's...
